Itinerary
1
Alexandra Falls
Alexandra Falls is one of Mauritius’ most scenic viewpoints in Black River Gorges National Park. On a guided experience, travelers are taken to an easy-access lookout platform overlooking a 30m waterfall dropping into a deep, forested canyon. The focus is on scenery, photography, and nature interpretation rather than hiking.
Guests typically walk short paved or natural paths through humid native forest, where guides point out endemic plants, birds, and explain the volcanic geology shaping the gorge. At the main viewpoint, sweeping views open across layered green valleys, cliffs, and, on clear days, the distant southern coastline.
Depending on conditions, the waterfall can appear as a powerful cascade after rainfall or a lighter flow in drier periods, often surrounded by drifting mist and the sounds of tropical birds. Travelers usually spend time taking photos, relaxing at the railing viewpoints, and enjoying the cool mountain air.
30 minutes
2
Macchabée Viewpoint
Machabee Viewpoint is a quiet roadside lookout on the northern coast of Mauritius, often included in scenic drives along the island’s wild, less-developed shoreline. On a guided experience, travelers are brought here for a short stop focused on panoramic ocean views and photography.
From the viewpoint, you see dramatic basalt cliffs dropping toward the Indian Ocean, with deep blue water stretching to the horizon and waves breaking against rugged rock formations below. On clear days, visibility can extend far along the northern coastline, with small coves and untouched stretches of greenery framing the sea.
Visitors typically spend time taking photos, enjoying the sea breeze, and listening to the constant sound of surf below. Guides often point out nearby fishing spots, coastal vegetation, and explain how volcanic activity shaped this rocky shoreline.

Black River Gorges National Park
Black River Gorges Viewpoint is one of the main panoramic stops inside Mauritius’ largest protected rainforest area, Black River Gorges National Park. On a guided experience, travelers are brought to a series of lookout platforms that open up sweeping views over the island’s wild interior.
From the viewpoint, you can see deep, forest-covered valleys, rolling volcanic ridges, and layers of green stretching toward distant peaks. On clear days, the view extends across dramatic gorges carved by rivers over thousands of years, with mist often rising from the dense canopy below.
Visitors typically walk a few minutes from the parking area to reach the main platforms, making it an easy and accessible stop suitable for all fitness levels. Guides often explain the park’s unique ecosystem, pointing out endemic plants and rare bird species that live in the forest.
20 minutes
4
Rhumerie de Chamarel
Rhumerie de Chamarel is one of Mauritius’ best-known artisanal rum distilleries, set in the scenic hills of the island’s southwest. On a guided experience, travelers typically visit to discover how local agricultural rum is made from fresh sugarcane grown on nearby plantations.
The visit usually starts with a walk through the estate grounds, where you can see sugarcane fields and learn about the harvesting process. Inside the distillery, guides explain each step—from fermentation and distillation to aging in oak barrels—highlighting the difference between white, spiced, and aged rums.
After the tour, guests move to a tasting room where they sample a range of rums and liqueurs, often paired with explanations of flavor notes like vanilla, caramel, tropical fruit, and spice. There’s also a boutique shop for purchasing bottles and local products.
Many experiences include time at the on-site restaurant, which offers panoramic views over green valleys and serves Mauritian-inspired cuisine

Chamarel Seven Coloured Earth Geopark
Chamarel Seven Coloured Earth Geopark is one of Mauritius’ most unique natural landmarks, located in the southwest near Chamarel village. On a guided experience, travelers visit a protected area of rolling sand dunes made of volcanic soil that naturally formed into distinct bands of colour.
At the viewpoint, you’ll see smooth mounds of earth shifting through shades of red, brown, purple, blue, green, and yellow. The patterns are especially striking in sunlight, where the colours appear layered and almost surreal against the surrounding greenery. Guides often explain that the effect comes from different mineral compositions in the volcanic ash that settled here millions of years ago.
Visitors typically walk along short fenced paths leading to viewing platforms, with stops for photography and interpretation. Nearby, there is often a chance to spot giant tortoises in a small enclosure and visit a souvenir area.
1 hour
6
Ebony Forest Reserve
Ebony Forest Reserve Chamarel is a conservation-focused nature reserve set in the uplands of southwest Mauritius, created to restore native ebony forest and protect rare endemic species. On a guided experience, visitors explore a mix of rewilded forest, scenic viewpoints, and educational trails.
The visit typically starts at the eco-centre, where guides introduce the history of Mauritius’ original forests and how much was lost to agriculture and invasive species. From there, short guided walks lead into restored native woodland filled with ebony trees, medicinal plants, and rare endemic flora.
Along the trails, travelers often spot endangered birds such as the Mauritius kestrel or echo parakeet, depending on the season.
A highlight of the experience is reaching elevated viewpoints overlooking the southwest coastline, including views toward the Chamarel plains, mountains, and distant ocean.
1 hour
7
Lavilleon Adventure Park
Lavilleon Adventure Park is an outdoor adventure and nature park located in the highlands of Mauritius, designed for travelers who want a mix of adrenaline activities and scenic forest landscapes.
On a guided experience, visitors are welcomed into a large natural estate surrounded by pine forests, valleys, and mountain views. Depending on the package, the day typically includes a combination of adventure activities such as ziplining across forest canopies, quad biking on off-road trails, and walking suspension bridges with views over the surrounding hills.
Between activities, travelers can explore viewpoints that overlook the island’s interior, with sweeping perspectives of green valleys and distant coastlines on clear days. Guides often share insights about the local ecosystem and the estate’s reforestation efforts.
There are also relaxed moments built into the experience, where guests can enjoy nature walks, take photos, or simply rest at scenic stops within the park.

Chamarel
Lunch in Chamarel is usually a relaxed stop in the village or nearby hillside restaurants, rather than a single fixed attraction.
On a guided experience, travelers are typically brought to a local restaurant or guesthouse-style eatery in the Chamarel area, surrounded by green mountains and sugarcane fields. The setting is quiet and scenic, with open terraces or verandas overlooking the southwest valleys.
The food is mostly Mauritian home-style cuisine—grilled fish, chicken curries, rice, lentils, fresh salads, and seasonal vegetables, often cooked with local spices and coconut-based sauces. Meals are served in a simple, unhurried way so guests can enjoy the views and take a break between sightseeing stops.
What makes lunch in Chamarel special is the atmosphere rather than a specific venue: you’re eating in a highland village known for its cool air, dramatic landscapes, and rural charm.

Chamarel View Point
Chamarel Viewpoint is one of the most striking panoramic stops in southwest Mauritius, located in the highlands above the Chamarel region. On a guided experience, travelers are brought to a short-access viewpoint that opens onto sweeping landscapes of valleys, mountains, and coastline.
From the lookout, you can see layered green hills rolling toward the Indian Ocean, with dramatic volcanic terrain shaping the landscape below. On clear days, visibility stretches across the southwest coast, including sugarcane fields, forested slopes, and distant reef-fringed waters. Cloud shadows often move across the mountains, creating a constantly changing scenery.
Visitors usually spend time taking photos, enjoying the cooler mountain air, and observing how the terrain shifts from dense forest to open farmland. Guides often explain the volcanic origins of the region and point out nearby landmarks such as waterfalls and the Chamarel plateau.
