Opposite the Seven Coloured Earth entrance
Curious Mauritius stands on the B104 opposite the geopark entrance, about 1.5 km in a straight line from Chamarel village. It is easy to combine with a visit to the coloured earth and waterfall viewpoints, which have their own ticket.
A car or taxi makes it easier to move between Chamarel’s sights. The waterfall viewpoints and coloured dunes lie farther inside the geopark, beyond its entrance.
Add lunch at Enbalao
For non-residents, the Discovery Pass and Lunch at Enbalao costs Rs 1,600 per adult and Rs 1,000 per child aged 3 to 12. Confirm the current menu and any dietary needs when booking.
Resident lunch-combo prices are Rs 1,350 per adult and Rs 850 per child. Meals and drinks are not included with the entry-only Discovery Pass.
A playful stop for families and showery days
The interactive sets give families and groups something to do together between Chamarel’s outdoor sights. Indoor rooms and covered outdoor spaces make it a useful option when showers interrupt the day.
For a family visit, use the child rate for ages 3 to 12 and check arrangements for younger children before booking. During severe weather, check the current visitor notice before travelling up to Chamarel.
