GR®R2

From St Denis to Le Baril (St Philippe) (Reunion Island)

134km

Reunion Island was discovered by the Portuguese in 1513. It was then colonized by the French, Dutch and English before becoming definitively French in 1810. Colonization left a deep mark on the island, both both culturally and socially. African slaves, French settlers and Indian workers all helped shape Reunion's identity. Reunion Island has a very diverse fauna and flora. It is home to a wide variety of endemic species, including the green lizard, the pink pigeon and the red palmetto. Reunion is also known for its magnificent landscapes, with its volcanoes, waterfalls and black sand beaches.
