Thank you for a great vid. In my 20 years living there, I only made primary school trips in the 60's. Such access as you have today were non-existent, and the most I ever saw of the BR gorge was from a bus. Kudos to the authorities for having managed the forest and made it accessible while preserving its essence.
Your videos are so beautifully shot...the drone shots are awesome...keep posting...some day i plan to be in Mauritius... till then will enjoy the beautiful island through your tales...
Thanks so much Dr Kapil. I love flying my drone, but these days, with all of the drone laws, it's getting harder to use! Stay safe during these troubled times. I hope one day you make it to the island.
Great Lucy, i use the link to your videos to encourage people to come to Mauritius and everyone like you very beautiful and clear vlog. Keep it up love all your vlogs!
Hi from Germany 🇩🇪. It’s a great video and the nature in Mauritius is magnificent. I enjoyed to follow you jumping in the water ... hopefully I can make this beautiful trip next time when I’m flying to Mauritius 🇲🇺
Love the video. Live in London with my family and was meant to visit last year. Can't believe you haven't covered Gorges. You need to get a 4k camera! Thanks Lucy!
Thanks for watching! How are things over in London at the moment? We’re lucky here as we’re virtually back to normal now. I come to the gorges a lot but have never filmed here. I have no idea why? Perhaps as it’s too hot 😛 I own several 4K cameras but never shoot in 4K as it’s way too memory intensive on my computer. All of the best :)
Hello ! Thank you for the beautiful images of the Black River gorges . What are the other places that somebody who wants to spend 2 weeks in mauritius must visit?
@@LucyLeheilleix Thanks ! I've discovered a few days ago your videos . I'm going to watch all your videos and i will certainly find what i am looking for.
A wonderful place to visit indeed. I injured my knee over a year ago and then had ACL reconstructive surgery. My knee still hurts, so I wear protection when I walk.
Great video..i always take visitors there when ever possible..i really love the sound of the nature and its different in each place..like a melody that make u forget the noise of our everyday life..the nature there its very peacefull .you should really try to go for the hiking from there to Petrin..or Mare Long..or do it in reverse..it will be a nice vlog.. Thank for this wonderfull video..keep it up..
Lucy, we love your videos and find them informative and interesting. Wish we could travel there. One thing to comment/improve maybe is the background music. They are usually too loud for your voice so we have to increase volume when you talk and have to constantly lower the volume in between because the back ground music is really loud! Can you please do something about it in your next videos?
Thanks for this feedback. On what device are you watching these videos? I ask as you’re the only person who has commented on voice/music mixing issues. I mix everything to -6db. 😀
Miss the gorges so much. One of my favourite places on earth, although I did prefer it before they built the road and parking place. Back then the only way there was mostly on foot with parts you could cycle. Bassin des aigrettes was the place to go, now no more than a pool of water everyone drives past on the way to the parking.
Hi Lucy, this is a great video! My partner and I will be visiting Mauritius for 2 weeks in September and we want to spend a day at the Black River Gorges National Park. The reviews on Tripadvisor are mostly positive, but there are 2 reviews from different people saying they were robbed by two people with machetes at the entrance/exit! One of the reviews said they were in the park between 1pm and 4pm when they were robbed, so quite a significant part of the day. This is obviously a scare for us, but what are the chances of this happening? We would prefer to visit the park on our own without a group or guide but we are worried about safety. Are there usually lots of people around throughout the day within the park? This would make us feel safer knowing we will see other tourists or locals frequently, as we assume these robberies took place when they were completely alone with nobody else around! Thank you! 🙂
Hello! You would be extremely unlucky to become a victim of crime in the gorges. I’ve walked there regularly for 6 years with no problems at all. Early morning it is usually buzzing with people. There are some great hikes with fantastic viewpoints. Have fun 👍🏻
I’m in Mauritius on Thursday and I am trying to find a guide that can walk with me the 7 waterfalls, im 58 female not very fit, and I don’t want a rush a day with lots of sightseeing things. can you help me with a contact please?
Just imagine these forests and small river evironments are where the dodos would chill a couple hundred years ago, *living the best life I'd say*
Can you imagine! I often think about!
Thanks Lucy. Keep them coming.
Thanks Zainab.
Thanks Lucy and family, you are such a natural in front of your camera bringing all of us Mauritius.
Thanks so much. I’m glad you enjoy the videos. Stay safe!
So peaceful this place 😌 thks for the video Lucy
Isn't it so amazing?! I love spending time here.
Good Morning Lucy when I was a teenager I used to do that often on school outings. Thank you for bringing back the memory.👍
You are so welcome
Love that area. Great video.
Thanks very much Riki.

Hi Jay. Thanks for watching! It’s very well maintained and super clean. A really nice place to spend time.
Awesome

The gorges are definitely worth exploring :)
Wow! Thank you 🙏

Hey Lucy, thanks for all your videos so far. They are really helpful! I just sent a mail to you with a few questions. Thank you!
A magical place, we remember jumping from rock to river 💚🍀
There are so many great walks here. Just very humid at the moment.
Love Mauritius love nature love the ocean can wait to be back
Thanks Zainab!
Thank you for that Lucy, we were privileged to visit there in Jan 2020, lovely memories 🐸🌿🌱🍃🦜
It’s so lovely Chrissy. It’s just near where I live. I love it.
Hello
I find that your videos are getting better and better and I loved the transitions!! Keep it up!!
Thanks Will. The transitions are from pixel film studios for fcpx. I think I saw your girlfriend in the gorges the other day :) Let’s catch up soon!?
Great Lucy, i use the link to your videos to encourage people to come to Mauritius and everyone like you very beautiful and clear vlog. Keep it up love all your vlogs!

Hi Antje. I hope you’re going to be able to come here very soon. Thanks for watching.
I forgot to ask you something Lucy. Are there many mosquitoes in the national park? Did you or the kids get lots of mosquito bites?
Love the video. Live in London with my family and was meant to visit last year. Can't believe you haven't covered Gorges. You need to get a 4k camera!

Hello ! Thank you for the beautiful images of the Black River gorges . What are the other places that somebody who wants to spend 2 weeks in mauritius must visit?
Hi Gilbert. Thanks for watching! I've made many videos on my CZcams channel all about where to go in Mauritius. You should check them out :)
@@LucyLeheilleix Thanks ! I've discovered a few days ago your videos . I'm going to watch all your videos and i will certainly find what i am looking for.

Beautiful place to hike. Thanks for the great video. What happened to your knee? Hope you get better soon.

I like this video so much. They are full of information and love. It was so nice to watch.
Take care dear.
Thanks very much :)
As always, good job Lucy!!
Thanks for watching Dharam.
Miss the gorges so much. One of my favourite places on earth, although I did prefer it before they built the road and parking place. Back then the only way there was mostly on foot with parts you could cycle. Bassin des aigrettes was the place to go, now no more than a pool of water everyone drives past on the way to the parking.
It must've been even better back in the day when there was no official raod. I was there again today and I could just imagine the dodo walking around.
I go there monthly 😅😅🇲🇺
I do too, but have never filmed in there.
Do u live in Mauritius
❤❤❤
Thank you 🙏

I’m going to assume that there are no poisonous snakes; and spiders; and ants.
The only irritation are the red ants which can bite and cause a bit of an itchy reaction. Apart from that, Mauritius is very safe.
I’m in Mauritius on Thursday and I am trying to find a guide that can walk with me the 7 waterfalls, im 58 female not very fit, and I don’t want a rush a day with lots of sightseeing things. can you help me with a contact please?

At my age I couldn't swim. 😔 My bad
It’s never too late to learn 😆
Hi. Lucy
Lovely place 🍃🦋💦
Soon for me.....perhaps 2022 - 2023 🙏
Bye bye beautifull family 🤗
Hi Christine. I hope you get to the island soon. Stay safe :)
@@LucyLeheilleix thank you Lucy 🌸
Have you made the vaccine ?
Hi,
Do we need a guide to visit the park?
You can hike there by yourself. There are different hikes from easy to difficult.
Thank you!
Is there any entry fee to pay to enter the park...??
It’s totally free 😃
@@LucyLeheilleix oh that's great then...😊 Thank you.
What do you and your husband do for a living?
I work in TV and my husband is a banker. Take care. :)
Nice biceps
Ha, ha! Thanks 🤪
Hiii
Love this
Can I picnic here?
Hello. Yes you most certainly can picnic there! Have fun 😀
