The next stage is Bas-Terre. We drive through the National Park.

The road is very good. Each landmark is marked with a sign and a parking lot. The main thing is not to yawn. Several hiking trails start along the road, lasting from 5 minutes to 3.5 hours. All routes are equipped - signs, signs with the names of trees, bridges over streams, steps where necessary. In general, you travel through the jungle with European amenities! There is something to see!

We first went to the Cascadeaux Ecrevisses waterfall. 5 minutes walk from the road along the road, a very nice waterfall, 7 meters high. A beautiful place.

Then we stopped at MaisondelaForet. In a small museum type, we got hold of booklets, and took a walk for 20 minutes (there is also an hour). Walk along the suspension bridge over the river and further through the jungle. It's hard to describe...Walking in the forest is generally interesting (especially for the steppe or city dwellers), but in the tropical...
Photos can partially convey the feeling ...It was very cool!

In other places, we did not go deep into the forest - we saved our strength. But a lover of hiking forest walks has a place to roam!!!

Yes, and the trip by car through the mountain rainforest is also a pleasure. You just need to remember to stop at the recommended places and look around and take pictures.

On the outskirts of the forest there is a zoo. Having learned the price (13.5 euros) we decided not to visit. Moreover, from the reviews it was clear that it does not differ in the variety of animals.

According to information from the nickname Otepla.

“I liked Mammel Zoo. There are local animals, turtles (I hoped to see them diving into the sea, but did not see them), interesting insects (you see sticks, but look closely - insects) plus lynxes and other cats, many suspension bridges.
