Casse de Takamaka

The deep and scenic Takamaka canyon is located at the east boundary of the Foret de Bebour and Plateau de Duvernay. There is a hike to a viewpoint over the canyon which starts at the road RF2 just behind a large picknick spot close to the Piton de Bebour. It's about 6 km long (one way) and runs through beautiful mountain rain forest. This also means that the trail is very muddy and slippery so it'll take you 2 to 3 hours to get to the viewpoint. Other than that, there are no major obstacles on the way. It runs mostly flat all the time. The view is very nice although the overlook of Trou de Fer is more spectacular.
