SIGNAL MOUNTAIN Signal Mountain is in the city of Port Louis.
It overlooks the harbour and city.
It is on the right side of the picture. It is possible to drive up by taking Labourdonnais Street
south from the junction with Georges Street.
At the end of Labourdonnais Street the road rises up
the flanks of the mountain and narrows in parts
but the drive is worth the effort. From the small parking area
there are different views of the capital,
spreading inland in neat blocks to the foot of
the Moka Mountains with flatlands of the north in the distance.
To the west there are views of Grand River North West
and the filao-fringed headland of Pointe aux Sables.
A very steep path to the summit of Signal Mountain
leads to the radio transmitter station.
