The Peace basin, a tumultuous water point

The Peace Basin is a water point formed from basalt, filled with several waterfalls and a torrent. The most important draws its source from the Roches River which flows several kilometers below into the Indian Ocean. Located northeast of the Reunion Island, it straddles the commune of Bras-Panon and St. Benedict.

 

 

Following several drownings, the authorities decided to ban swimming in the Peace basin in March 2018. Despite everything, the site is still accessible, go to the car park at the end of the 2 km of cane fields at sugar. Once parked, all you have to do is walk in the direction of the Réunion basin for ten minutes.

 

It would be a shame to have come all this way to be satisfied with a single basin of the Roches river. Enjoy a session of canyoning to discover the others! The descent from the sea basin to the Peace basin is one of the favorites of the intense island. A hiking aquatic over the water, slides and jumps will introduce you to the Chien Basin, the Longor Basin or the Tintin Waterfall.

 

Don't want to take the plunge? Take the Peace Basin and La Mer Basin hiking trail from the village of Abondance on the Municipality of Saint-Benoît. An easy walk along the Roches river where you will have plenty of time to appreciate the different pools and waterfalls.
