Your Private Journey into Ebony Forest Reserve.

EXPERIENCE OVERVIEW

You stand within a natural cathedral where 800-year-old ebony trees rise from the red earth of Chamarel. The air here is cooler, smelling of damp moss and old wood. Guided by a private conservationist, you move unhurriedly along raised walkways, pausing to observe the rare Paradise Flycatcher or the steady flight of a Mauritius Kestrel. At Sublime Point, the southwestern coast reveals itself—a tapestry of turquoise lagoons and the silhouette of Le Morne Brabant—far from the usual crowds. The journey reaches its heart when you kneel to place a native Bois de Natte sapling into the soil. This is not merely a visit; it is a quiet, intentional act of restoration that ensures your presence leaves the island better than you found it.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

• Private use of 4×4 vehicle for an unhurried ascent through the reserve
• Expert insights from a personal conservationist guide throughout the journey
• Exclusive access to tranquil viewing areas at Sublime Point
• All equipment and guidance to plant a native sapling in the restoration zone
• A contribution to the ongoing rewilding of the Chamarel highlands

CONSCIOUS TRAVEL DIMENSION

This experience directly funds the intensive restoration of one of the island’s final endemic habitats. By planting a Coeur de Boeuf or Bois de Natte, you contribute to a circular conservation model that has already seen thousands of invasive plants removed to make way for native biodiversity. We prioritize these local conservation initiatives because they respect the delicate balance of the Ebony Forest, providing a low-impact way to support long-term ecological resilience.
