Walking - Gaschet path

The Gaschet dam has a unique landscape in the archipelago with a water area of 100 hectares. Bird lovers have counted 80 species, making this a unique site in the Lesser Antilles, especially for migrating ducks. It is also an easily accessible spot for anyone looking for "nature and a change of scene".
A wide-open, rustic site, ideal for getting away from it all.
Starting at the site's information panel, follow the path winding its way between the various rest places (karbays, benches, nature-drawing spots) all the way to the bird reserve.
You go back to the starting point the same way.
