Some suggestions

Visit The Museum of Music and Instruments of the Indian Ocean

TEMPORARILY CLOSED FOR WORKS

Among the things you can program to Salazia, the Museum will not disappoint you.

Walk in the village of Hell-Bourg

Hell-Bourg is a village as we like to imagine. Very colorful, neither too small nor too big. It is like Cilaos, when you are there, it is a feeling of another time. Despite the fact that many tourists go there, the inhabitants have managed to keep a real authenticity and not a tourist way of life. The center of the village includes several restaurants, you can taste dishes based on chouchou (chayote for some of us).

A stroll in old terms

The thermal waters of Hell-Bourg were discovered in 1830, they gave birth to thermal establishments in 1850. Their remains are still visible and give the possibility of a short walk from the village of Hell-Bourg. It is a suitable place for a family picnic.

It is also a workshop of the Trail Station of Hell-Bourg: the split! if you meet runners, move away a little, they are in full training!
