Trou aux cerfs, the spitting image of a perfect volcano, is found on the central plateau of the island in Curepipe. It is a monogenetic volcano with a central vent; it has a diameter of 350m at the surface and a crater that is about 80m deep. It is easily accessible and offers a breathtaking view of the island and sometimes when the weather is clear, the coast of the island of La Reunion can even be seen.
