By vehicle type in Cilaos
Set in the heart of the island, the Cilaos cirque is one of Réunion's most spectacular spots: thermal baths, the start of the climb to the Piton des Neiges, and renowned wine and lentils. It's reached by the legendary road of 400 bends.
At the end of the road of 400 bends
The Cilaos road, from Saint-Louis, has hundreds of bends and several single-lane tunnels: a nimble vehicle and careful driving are essential. Once at the top, the car is still useful to reach the trailheads, the baths and the villages.

Good to know
Driving up into the cirques
Cilaos, Salazie: the roads into the cirques are narrow and very winding (over 400 bends to reach Cilaos!). A nimble car, or even an SUV, makes driving in the highlands far more relaxed.
See SUVs / 4x4sUnlimited mileage: drive without counting
On Réunion Island you easily cover 100 km a day between the volcano, the cirques and the lagoon. A capped-mileage deal quickly turns into a trap. On Tropiloc, unlimited mileage comes as standard on most listings.
How much does car hire cost?Book early in high season
