Parc Adventure Chamarel Mauritius

Found in the heart of the Mauritian forest at Chamarel (which is reputed for its wonderful coloured earth) is an adventure park for all ages. Extended over an area of 12 hectares and at 350 metres above sea level, the adventure park is the place to get yourself into some serious activities or to simply enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lush green forest and the blue sea (visible through the valleys and breaks in the tree tops) making it the ideal place for nature lovers, adventure lovers and photo lovers! Activities range from simple strolling in the forest to more physical ones such as rock climbing but basically four main activities are provided.

The thousand leaves track is a track where footbridges have been placed through the trees so that the visitor can get a glimpse of the forest area from the bird’s eye point of view. The course is about 205 metres long and can be covered in an hour. It is relatively easy and accessible to all ages.
The next tract, the adventure track, as the name says, involves more difficult entertainment. The track is 229 metres long; can be covered in 1h30 hours and is mostly for the more adventurous ones. It involves a series of strenuous activities though tyroleans, horizontal nets, net tunnels, swings and footbridges with holes.

For those who just love to enjoy the forest, the park offers the visitor an amazing experience of coursing through the beautiful vegetation and identifying the different plants through a plan that is offered at the reception area. Many of the trees in the forest are indigenous to the island such as Bois Boeuf, Bois de Ronde, Bois d’Ebene. Kiosks and viewpoints have been placed at strategic points throughout the park so that the visitor can enjoy the beautiful panorama set before him to the max.

Finally the flavour stroll leads the visitor to a breath taking orchard found in the heart of the forest by hiking through the hilly areas in the park. Though a testy journey, the end view of the geese dancing in the forest, the cheerful chirping of the birds, the scent of the different flavours of the fruit trees such as litchi, papaya, mango, tamarind, avocado, lemon and star fruit amongst others makes it a worthwhile journey to undertake.

The safety of the visitor is of primordial importance in the park such that safety materials are offered like harnesses. All equipments follow the European standards and are thoroughly checked daily before opening. Children less than 6 years old are not allowed to take part in the demanding activities and children less that 18 must be accompanied by an adult. For the comfort of the visitor, proper outdoor clothes are advised as well as handy tennis shoes. Guides are available during the risky activities and are ready to help whenever needed. There is also a restaurant at the park which is indeed very welcome once the journey of exercising ends!
