Into the Heart of the Black River Gorges The hike starts on a shady forest trail surrounded by thick, luxuriant vegetation. Birds sing overhead, and the gentle sound of rustling leaves sets the tone for an authentic outdoor experience. As you ascend, the path winds through idyllic farmlands and wild meadows, leading deep into Mauritius’ most pristine landscapes.

It’s the perfect spot for breathtaking photos and quiet reflection. ️ Lunch & Relaxation After your descent, unwind and enjoy a three-course Mauritian lunch at a local restaurant.
