The bus operates regularly, so check the schedule for the next departure. Once on the bus, enjoy the scenic route as it takes you through various neighborhoods. You will need to disembark at the 'Ouen Toro' bus stop. From there, walk along the road toward the hill for about 10 minutes. You'll see signs directing you to Ouen Toro Hill.

Walking
If you're starting from the beach area, head towards Anse Vata Beach. Walk along the beachfront promenade until you reach the end of the beach where the road begins to rise toward Ouen Toro Hill. Follow the road uphill, staying on the left side for pedestrian safety. After about 20-30 minutes of walking, you will reach the entrance to the Ouen Toro hiking area. The trail to the viewpoint is well-marked and offers beautiful views along the way.
