8 Forests in Reunion Island That You Shouldn't Miss

February 22, 2022 Franklyn Hardiman

Home to one of the world's most active volcanoes, snow-capped Piton de Fournaise, Reunion is a little known gem. This rocky, French-governed island off the coast of East Africa is easily explored by Les Cars Jaunes, yellow buses that link main settlements. The road into the mountains provides breathtaking scenery. Bike tours on rough back roads are an option for the brave and the extremely fit. Beyond the reach of cars, untamed village Cirque de Mafate shows the island's wildest side.

La Roche Merveilleuse

Reviewed By william_974

This hike is free and accessible to children. The Marvellous Rock Platform is located above the town of Cilaos. First a walk or a drive of a few kilometres, and then we stop at a car park. From there you walk a little and climb a few steps, and then from the belvedere you can enjoy a wonderful view of the Cilaos circus, the town and the ramparts. It is then possible to follow a botanical path. There are picnic areas. We will come back to La Roche Merveilleuse for a good time of relaxation.
