    Foret de Belouve

    At the end of the road, we will go to the sumptuous point of view on the circus of Salazie, since the Gite de Bélouve. This point of view will again be an opportunity to read this exceptional landscape: human and forest activities, marronnage, history of the island and its settlement. After a snack of local products, our hike begins at this place, by a direct immersion in the primary forest. Tree ferns, orchids, "wood of colors", we will discover the medicinal plants endemic to this unique environment. The trails are flat, slightly hilly, (forest track or wooden footbridge), allowing us to move easily.
