Description

You'll be heading to Trou Aux Cerfs which is a crater surrounded by a vast area of lush forest consisting of indigenous plant species and some giant green pine trees. Definitely, one of the main highlights is the 360-degree view of the town of Curepipe and the Mountain range Continue on to a local naval modeling workshop, renowned for designing historic, handmade ship models. Browse the museum's collection, watch as a craftsman carves a new project, or purchase your own souvenir for an original trip memento. Afterward, head to Mare Aux Vacoas reservoir which has the honor of being the largest reservoir on the island and is simultaneously a rather popular stop for tourists visiting the south of the island. From here, travel to the Grand Bassin, a sacred lake nestled around a volcano crater, embellished with a Hindu temple where a famous statue of Shiva resides. Then it's time to visit the Black River for an unforgettable panoramic view, where you can also catch a glimpse of the Black River Gorge. The drive continues to Chamarel Village to admire the 90-meter high Chamarel Waterfall and the curious 7-Coloured Earth, a natural phenomenon caused when basaltic lava converts the clay mineral into vibrant shades of red, brown, violet, green, blue, purple, and yellow.
