Piton de Partage

Piton de Partage rises to 2,636 meters above sea level, forming part of the massive cliffs surrounding the Enclos Fouqué caldera in eastern Réunion Island.

The summit emerged through volcanic processes over millions of years, shaping the current landscape alongside the active Piton de la Fournaise volcano system.

Local residents maintain strong connections to the mountain paths, which serve as traditional routes for accessing different parts of the eastern region.

The hiking trail to reach the summit begins at the Pas de Bellecombe parking area, covering 4.44 kilometers with an elevation gain of 89 meters.

The summit provides direct views of recent lava flows, volcanic formations, and the deep valley of Fond de la Rivière de l'Est.
