A visitor centre is open with displays that give you a good understanding of how special this World Heritage Site is. A guided tour is much better than fighting your way around yourself and missing once in a lifetime opportunities to see flora & fauna that is endemic; and sometimes particular to these few square miles of rainforest. Be prepared for a stiff walk. You may even see a rare Black Parrot! There is a good walk which starts on the left side of the road a few hundred metres before the visitor centre if travelling from Baie St. Anne. It may be signposted as Glacis Noir.
