Review:
Aorai Mountain is one of the most hiked mountains in Tahiti and the third tallest peak on the island reaching 2,066 meters.
There is one hiking path that begins at O Belvedere Restaurant, and while guides are not required, there are guides that can be hired, which is recommended for safety. The trail is well maintained and will take at least 4.5 hours to reach the summit. To reach the top and climb back down on the same day, hikers should be prepared to begin their ascent at dawn. There are two shelters available on the mountain that hikers can stay in for free. Twenty hikers can be accommodated in each, and the shelter has electricity and cisterns filled with rainwater.
