About this hike

Hidden in Black River Gorges National Park, Mare Longue Waterfalls combine natural beauty, peace, and adventure. The Mare Longue Waterfalls Hike offers the perfect balance of relaxation and excitement.

Starting with a gentle 4 km trail through tropical forest, the path takes you past the Mare Longue Reservoir, a peaceful spot that sets the tone for the hike.

As you approach the falls, the sound of rushing water signals the highlight of the journey — a 6-meter-high waterfall cascading into a crystal-clear natural pool. With a depth of around 8 meters, the pool is ideal for swimming or trying an optional adrenaline-pumping cliff jump.

This guided hike is accessible to most visitors, making it a great option for families, first-time hikers, or anyone looking for a fun outdoor adventure in Mauritius.
