The guided hike on the Nez Cassé is very challenging, with vertiginous passages as you walk over hanging tree roots.
A hike in the heart of the National Park
Our starting point: the Beausoleil picnic area in Saint-Claude, in the heart of the Guadeloupe National Park, amidst the tall trees of the tropical forest: acomat, white gum, yellow paletuviers... We're right under the Soufrière volcano.
We'll be skirting the Canal Pelletier before tackling the vertiginous ascent of the Nez Cassé and discovering a different Guadeloupe. When the weather's fine, we have a view of the Soufrière volcano and southern Basse-Terre.
The summit has to be earned, a mikado of trunks, roots and branches to cross. The descent takes you to Papaye before following the Delgrès trail through the forest to the Beausoleil picnic area. An unusual discovery in Guadeloupe for traileurs.
To reserve An exceptional guided hike!
