This dormant volcanic crater stands about 605 meters above sea level, with a diameter of 350 meters and a depth of around 100 meters. Unlike typical volcanic features, the crater is encircled by a vast forest of indigenous plants and giant green pine trees. It is believed that Trou aux Cerfs erupted once and has been dormant for the last 700,000 years, though experts think it could become active again. One of the main highlights is the 360-degree view of Curepipe town and the majestic Rempart Mountain, Trois Mamelles, and the Port-Louis-Moka Mountain range.
• Grand Bassin - After a short drive, you’ll arrive at Grand Bassin, also known as Ganga Talao, a crater lake situated about 550 meters above sea level in the mountainous southwest of Mauritius. On the lake’s shore, there is a temple and several small shrines dedicated to Lord Shiva and other gods. During your visit, you’ll be awestruck by the gigantic 33-meter-high statue of Lord Shiva, the tallest statue in Mauritius. Ganga Talao attracts many visitors who come to pray, meditate, or simply enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The lake is about 18 meters deep and is home to a healthy population of fish and eels.

It’s the perfect place to spend a few relaxing minutes away from the hustle and bustle. The reservoir offers a stunning view worth capturing in photos.
• Black River Gorges Nature Park - Next, you’ll visit Gorge Viewpoint for a breathtaking panoramic view of endless green landscapes.

The viewpoint is high above the gorge, offering a stunning view of a waterfall on the right. The path to the viewpoint has a unique ambiance with souvenir stalls, and you might encounter friendly monkeys along the way.
