Other sectors

Before you set off

A trail is closed for a reason: a landslide, a washed-out path, works, fallen trees. Going in means you may not get through, or worse.

This page follows the ONF's trail layer, which RandoMafate reads several times a day, and changes as soon as the ONF updates a trail. On the ground, a barrier, a sign or an official order always prevails over this list.

After heavy rain or in the cyclone season, more trails may be closed before they show here: also check the Météo-France warnings, which RandoMafate shows next to your outing.

Plan your hike without walking into a barrier

The trail map offline, ONF closures and Météo-France warnings in one place, a route that goes around what is closed, and the people close to you told when you set off and when you are back. Mafate is included; the whole island with RandoMafate Premium.
