On August 1, 2010, the "Pitons, cirques and remparts" of Reunion Island were listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The heart of the Parc national de La Réunion is recognized worldwide for its exceptional biodiversity and unique landscapes. Amandine, Alexis and Didier, all three mountain guides, invite you to discover this exceptional heritage, close to the Piton de la Fournaise.

Born from the bowels of the earth over 530,000 years ago, the Piton de la Fournaise is still one of the most active volcanoes on the planet. Culminating at an altitude of 2,632 metres, it promises visitors a change of scenery in an almost lunar landscape. And yet, in these arid lands shaped by successive eruptions, a remarkable flora has managed to adapt and offers an unusual spectacle, proof of the resilience of Life.

À la rencontre de...

In the heart of the Maïdo mountain range, Alexis Vincent invites you on a unique musical journey, where nature and melody meet. Take to the trails of Reunion Island and let yourself be carried away by spellbinding harmonies, for an unforgettable sensory immersion.

Alexis Vincent is a mountain leader who works all year round on the island as a hiking guide. For the past 5 years, he has been offering musical hikes accompanied by a cellist in the Hauts de l'Ouest, between the Maïdo sector and the Sans Souci forest*

We offer people, somewhere, the opportunity to discover a little more about the world around them. Simply botanical, historical, geological...and cultural aspects, as Creole culture is everywhere in Réunion Island. Our panoramas are going to change, they're going to be varied. What's more, we're going back in time with works of Baroque classical music that are 250/300 years old. We're opening doors, and it's up to each and every one of us to travel into these imaginations, these worlds, these vibrations. And it's also a question of individual sensitivity.

It's been marked Esprit parc national for a year and a half.

We're Esprit Parc Nationalbranded above all because of the values we wish to defend. These values are simple, and we're hearing a lot about them at the moment. Quite simply, it's an increase in our awareness of environmental issues, an increase in our sensitivity to the environment, and a rapprochement with nature, which is fundamental to us.

*Alexis also offers mountain bike tours of the Fournaise massif.
