Cirque de Salazie

Grand Ilet, in the heart of Reunion Island, is a quaint mountain village and rural gem perfectly placed at an altitude of 1100 metres amidst the breathtaking scenery of Cirque de Salazie. Begin your journey by exploring the town's Church of Saint-Martin, with its stained glass windows made by Guy Lefèvre, a famous master glassmaker from the island. Rest, recharge your batteries and savour the elevated views before embarking on climbing and hiking trails along the slopes of the beautiful mountain pass of Col des Boeufs with panoramic vistas and several hiking trails. Immerse yourself in Salazie's spellbinding scenery, including the Veil of the Bride, a waterfall made up of many streams of water flowing along the mountainside. While on the road to the idyllic village of Hell-Bourg, stop by the Mare-à-Poule-d'Eau, a mesmerising pond that enchantingly reflects the vivid green of its glorious surroundings.
