Continue on this road for approximately 40 kilometers. Look for signs pointing towards Mount Latinarau, as you near the village of Fiu. The last stretch to the mountain may require a 4WD vehicle due to rough terrain. It is advisable to check the local weather conditions before your trip, as roads may be impassable during heavy rain.

Inform the driver that you are heading to Mount Latinarau, and they will drop you off at the nearest point accessible by road. This bus ride will cost around SBD 30 (Solomon Islands Dollars). Once you get off, you may need to hike the remaining distance to the mountain, which could take about 1-2 hours depending on your fitness level. Ensure you have good walking shoes and plenty of water.
