Itinerary description
Gorges Parking via part of Beachcomber Ultra Raid Trail to Piton de la Petite Rivière Noire and back down via Parakeet Trail. It is a long hike. We underestimated a little bit the time it will take to reach the summit. It took us around 3 hours. I would recommend this track only if you are fit and hike regularly. Not for beginners. In the beginning there are a few big boulders over which you have to climb with the support of a chord and chain that is attached there. It's not scary as these boulders are large. This track so far is my second favorite! There are very beautiful views to enjoy! There are parts where there were no markings, we then followed the tracks where we saw traces of mud. I wouldn't recommend going downhill on this track if it has rained!
