Here’s an original way to get from La Possession to Saint-Denis. This is the final section of the Grand Raid, one of the world’s toughest mountain races. Nearly half of the walk follows the Chemin des Anglais, a cobbled path steeped in history and offering stunning views. This route passes through La Grande-Chaloupe and Le Colorado. This walk requires a certain level of fitness.

Eighth stage of the island tour, following the railway line as closely as possible. After the long flat stretch of the previous stages, this short stage sees a return to uphill terrain. As access to the tunnel is officially prohibited, you must go via the Chemin des Anglais, which includes sections with steep gradients. This is a very old paved path that is now a must-do hike on the island.
