Tamarin Falls, Mauritius - MauriTrips - Tours & Travel in Mauritius - the Island Paradise

These falls are difficult to reach, but it's worth the effort for a beautiful, deep, cool dip awaits you at the bottom of the series of seven falls. The falls are visible from the Vacoas side when following the sign from Henrietta. The journey from Curepipe or Quatre Bornes, take a bus to Henrietta, then walk to Tamarind Falls. When traveling from Tamarin turn right about 3Km north of Tamarin, at the round about to Magenta and Yemen. A tarred, bumpy road through cane fields leads to the Magenta and Tamarind Falls turn-off. Continue through all the 'Private Estate', 'Permit Needed' and 'Prohibited Entry' signs, down towards the power station. The last leg of the journey is done by walking along the river up to the falls, cars or bikes should be left behind at this point. The path is significantly overgrown and you must cross to the other side and boulder-hop the last 300m along the river bed to reach the top, those who preserve will be splendidly rewarded!
