Itinerary description

Mountain that starts as ridge/separation between Le Dauguet parking and Vallée Pitot.
Note that this track was hand drawn using wikiloc GPS manual drawing feature.
Go to Dauguet parking area.
Park car there. Walk out of parking. Walk towards La Vierge Marie shrine. Watch out for blue and white stones marking moka trail (thank you to moka trail organizers). Keep following it until you reach Electric poles. Head uphill while maintaining central path. Watch out for yellow plastic hanging from tree. You will soon get on track. Keep uphill. Much higher it will be more of woods. There watch out for triple green painted spots on tree trunks to guide you.

Thank you to hiking groups for their hardwork and placing landmarks along the way.

I hope this narrative is not exhaustive

    Any way to go to continue to "colonne electrique" between Pouce and Grand Peak and finish at Petit Verger?

    Good walk, amazing views at the top. Some tricky parts with the forest overgrown and sense, but nothing to worry about.

    The Window is connected to Letard. But 2 different things. Access to Window is mainly from Cité Martial Market fair entrance, Route Militaire, Port Louis

    Letard access I tried was via Le Dauguet parking grounds, Château d'eau street, P-Louis
