Scopri Mauritius Sud-ovest oltre la spiaggia.
Black River Gorges National Park is Mauritius' only national park, protecting 6,574 hectares of native forest in the southwest. Established in 1994, the park is home to many endemic plant and animal species found nowhere else on Earth.
The park features over 50 kilometers of hiking trails ranging from easy nature walks to challenging treks. Highlights include viewpoints overlooking dramatic gorges, waterfalls, and the chance to spot rare birds like the Mauritius Kestrel and Pink Pigeon, brought back from the brink of extinction.
The diverse ecosystem includes upland forests, lowland forests, and heathland, each supporting different species. The park is a vital conservation area and offers a glimpse of what Mauritius looked like before human settlement.
