Societé Indigène Ltée, A COEUR BOIS - Chamarel

A Coeur Bois is located in the heart of an evergreen forest adjoining the National Park, in the very lap of Piton de La Petite Rivière Noire, the highest peak of Mauritius. The scenery is spectacular, with the verdurous forest canopy clambering up undulating mountain slopes and soaring peaks. The whole region is a vast park and a natural open-air aviary, an irresistible invitation to nature-lovers to take to the forest tracks and see Mauritius in its pristine state.

"Nid-Jo" - The Conservator's Mansion:Made up of 17 rare species of timber, both local and imported, Nid-Jo is the palatial residence of the Conservator. The architecture evokes the traditional Creole residences of the colonial period furnished with the luxury and affluence of modern times, with some subtle allusions to Balinese design and décor.
"La Roche Qui Rit" - the MonumentRising from waves of innocence and struggling for survival against the constant attacks and caprices of "Mother Nature", la "Roche-Qui-Rit" is a living testimony to the volcanism and other dominant forces that have shaped the landscape.
"Le Pont des Oliviers" and "Eden Talao"The small wooden bridge "Le Pont des Oliviers" offers a little bit of fantasy to Eden Talao, the pond, where birds, fish, geese and ducks can be seen sunbathing or... taking a natural shower under the rain!
"ATMA" and "ATMAWE"As ATMAWE meanders its way to ATMA, it evokes Mauritius in its religious diversity... Here visitors will be sanctified by the beauty of the structural representations of Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism and Christianity, before liberating themselves in ATMA, the meditation corner or... the SOUL of the village.
"Avenue des Bois Divers" and "Le Traveller" Helipad:Struggling to impose itself amidst the natural environment and land relief, L'Avenue des Bois Divers leads us along to the Chalets by passing through a Helipad named "Le Traveller", which makes A Coeur Bois discreetly and conveniently accessible from the various parts of the island and from the airport.
"Ti Bazaar"The "Ti Bazaar" proposes, in the pure and authentic Mauritian style, some seasonal fruits (like chinese guava and wild berries) and "tisanes" derived from A Coeur Bois itself.
