Fiji: 3-Day/2-Night Hiking Tour with Remote Village Stays｜Fiji

Day 1: Cross-country drive into the heart of Viti Levu

Get picked up in Suva (at 12:30), Nadi (13:00), or the Suncoast (13:30) and leave the tar seal behind. We take a different route into the interior of the island from each pick-up location. Get to know your guides, enjoy the views, and get a glimpse into village life as you head inland in a 4WD.

Arrive in Naga village and stretch your legs on a short walk through village farms. Watch the sunset over the hills. Experience a Sevusevu, the traditional Fijian welcome, and find out about village life and Fiji’s deep-rooted culture. Enjoy a dinner made by the women’s group from local, fresh produce, before bedding down for the night.

Day 2: Naga to Nubutautau hike (11km)

Wake up to plunger coffee and hot water for tea, followed by a filling local breakfast. Have your daypack ready as you aim to start hiking while the air is fresh. A short climb provides sweeping views down to the village and across the rolling hills, before a long descent to the cool of the river.

Follow the banks of the Sigatoka River, pass through forest groves and old village sites, scramble over rocks, and criss-cross the river, before stopping for a packed lunch and a refreshing swim. After continuing along the river, a steep haul out of the valley rewards you with views along the valley and a warm welcome to Nubutautau village.

After freshening up and having some time to relax, be formally welcomed to the village and have an opportunity to find out more about Nubutautau’s place in Fiji’s history. Dinner is another spread freshly prepared by the ladies, before settling down to a satisfying night’s sleep.

Day 3: Nubutautau circular hike (5km)

Wake up to coffee and tea, soon followed by breakfast. Today’s hike is a wonderful combination of great views, a fun natural waterslide, a fascinating old and overgrown village site, and a river swim, so well worth getting onto the trail promptly for.

A shady spot on the river and a rock for jumping into the cool waters provide the perfect spot for your packed lunch, and maybe even a bit of stone-skimming. A steep climb out of the river bottom through village plantations with citrus, cacao, and avocado dotted within the forest brings some final big views before arriving back in Nubutautau village.

Shower, pack, and say goodbyes as you set off on your 4WD journey back to the coast and a farewell to Fiji’s hills. Drive via the Sigatoka valley for the Coral Coast and Suva or the Nausori Highland Road for Nadi.
