Cascade de Trou Noir - Reunion


The Cascade de Trou Noir is in the valley of the Riviére des Grands Galets. The road up the valley becomes very steep and twisty towards the end. So much so that when the car had to be stopped on one of the hairpins to avoid a vehicle coming down it could not make it up the hill. There was a strong smell of hot clutch and the tyres were spinning. We had to reverse down the hill and take a run at it, blowing the horn.
The cascade is unusual as all the water emerges from fissures between the rock strata not from the top of the ridge.
