Hike on the trail of the Neg' Marrons :

Hike through the rainforest on the heights of Petit-Bourg on the traces marked by the Guadeloupean slavery history. After an approach walk, you will arrive near the only vestiges of Neg'marrons' huts known to this day in Guadeloupe, before making a detour by the Moustique river to visit a magnificent natural site. This loop will allow you to vary the pleasures: you will approach the ecology with the observation of the functioning of the humid forest; you will be transported by the history of Neg'marrons, these slaves having fled to obtain their freedom; and you will savor a moment of relaxation by a bath in river.

Duration of the trip : 4h

Rates 35€ for adults, 20€ for children.

Difficulties: the 180 m difference in altitude and the 4 km distance do not necessarily reflect the real difficulty of this trail which should be classified as "average". In fact, almost all the difference in altitude is concentrated in a short section with some tricky passages. Given these elements, this hike should be reserved for people in good physical condition, without major physical problems (breathing, balance, heart, etc).

Equipment closed shoes, rain gear, water, snacks and spare shoes.
