Vé di động

The Black River Gorges National Park, 67.54 km² of pure, wild, nature. The heart of Mauritius island, home of many endemic species, both animal and floral.

It offers a great discovery of the nature of the island.

During this hike we will discover different viewpoints from which we can contemplate different parts of the park and its surroundings.

Half-way up our climb, we discover the “Mare aux Joncs Gorge” that we like to call the “Bats Valley” because of the thousands of Mauritan Fruit-Bats we can observe there.

On top of our ascension, at 400m above sea level we get an amazing sight on the West-Coast, its lagoons and beautiful villages amountains. From there, we start our back back down to the river where we can stop to enjoy a nice swim before continuing to the parking lot of the park.

Superb guided trek with Yudish along the start of the Pilgrim Trail in the Black River Gorges National Park!

Myself and my wife had a fabulous guided trek on the Pilgrims Trail with our experienced and knowledgable guide Yudish. Details for meeting and starting the trek were clear. Our group was small (three of us) which made the tour very manageable and personal. At points, the walk gets fairly steep but all perfectly OK with a reasonable degree of fitness and it never felt ‘technical’ or challenging. With a reasonable bit of altitude gained, we had some amazing views and all along the route Yudish answered questions and shared great local knowledge about the history of the island, its geology and both flora and fauna. As a whole it was lovely so I would definitely recommend for those wanting to get out and see some of this beautiful island!

We took a hike this morning, at the Black River Gorge. Gilles, our guide was very welcoming and available to give us as much information about fauna and flora. We had the chance to meet and observe a deer near the river. Very nice and quiet time. It feels good. We recommend.

Small hike in a beautiful setting with our guide Henri. Seasoned athlete who has adapted to our beginner level. We had a pleasant time and discovered this part of the island that makes you want to travel even more. Thank you Henri for this physical but soothing escape.
