What to expect

Discover the splendid, pure, and wild nature of Black River Gorges National Park during this activity. The park is situated in the southwest of the island and aims to protect and raise awareness of Mauritius' natural heritage of endemic flora and fauna. Out of the remaining forests of Mauritius, the park is the largest covering 3.5% of the island's total surface. It is the heart of Mauritius or rather its lungs.

An expert will ensure that guests make the most of this trip regardless of difficulty level. You can choose between two options; one option is the half-day hike which is around 3-4 hours of hiking time with a medium difficulty level. The second option is the full-day hike, around 5-6 hours. This hike is a challenging experience with a higher difficulty level which requires a good fitness level.

Enjoy beautiful panoramic views with changing micro-climates along the way. Hear the beautiful sounds of nature and birds like the Pink Pigeons, the Mauritian Kestrel, and Echo Parakeets. Rare endemic trees like the black ebony are found in the park. After being amazed by the magnificent views, get the chance to swim in a river before ending the trip.
