In order to better discover the island and in particular the Cirque de Mafate, we decided with Arthur, to follow the GR-R2 which crosses the island from side to side.<\/p>\n

With a length of 140km and with about 8000m of elevation gain, the route starts from Saint Denis, in the North West and joins Saint Philippe, in the South-East passing by Cirques of Mafate and Cilaos but also the Piton des Neiges and that of the Furnace. The landscapes that it crosses its magnificent and the immersion in the atmosphere of the island is total.<\/p>\n

Cirque or Circus are roughly circular depression closed by high clifs due to local volcanism. There 3 in La R\u00e9union : Mafate, Cilaos and Salazie.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_separator][vc_custom_heading]Few words about La R\u00e9union[\/vc_custom_heading][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”0″ overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ mobile_visibility=”yes” shift_y=”0″][vc_column column_width_percent=”60″ overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ medium_width=”0″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ width=”1\/1″][vc_column_text]\r\n\t\t
