The canyon is located in the North of the Reunion island in the town with the same name.
To go to the canyon parking just follow the signs “BASSIN BOEUF”.
An “exhausting” approach of about 5 minutes allows us to get to the heart of the matter.
The descent takes place into a river whith a lot of natural pools.

A small abseil allows access to the sumptuous “Bassin Nicole” pool. We swim to traverse it. After a short walk into the river, we jump into the next pool (optional). We have the choice beetwin 5 meters, 3 meters, 2 meters high for the jump. You can also be descended with a rope.

Then we arrive at the curiosity of the descent. The river crosses a cave and falls into the next pool.

An abseil/zip line later we are on the snacking area where we can play with a lot of possible jumps.

Then comes the final pool of the initiation part with a zip line, and a 9 meter jump (not mandatory).

For Sainte Suzanne classic we walk back in a 15 minutes to the car park.

For Sainte Suzanne integral we continue the descent for about two more hours, with abseils, jump (6 meters), slide, and the breathtaking final into the last pool with a giant zip line.
