500 Feet Waterfall (Cascade 500 Pieds)

SouthHideawaysNatureWaterfalls

A hidden waterfall deep in the sugarcane fields of the south.

Cascade 500 Pieds is one of Mauritius's lesser-known waterfalls, tucked away in the rural south of the island. The waterfall is named after its impressive height and offers a peaceful escape from the more touristy areas. Getting there is an adventure in itself, as you'll need to navigate through sugarcane fields and rural paths.
