Bois d'Amour

HIKING

Climb the highest point of the island, feel the sky above and enjoy the splendid views over the neighbouring islands and the sea.

Most of La Digue’s roads and paths are easy to cycle and almost all the beaches are accessible by bike. But hiking is different. Walking on granite as old as time makes you calm down and discover more details, it lets you explore the island with all senses.

Local guides will be happy to show you the hidden island trails, ask us for details and listen to their answers on your veranda.

What our guests say

  • Perfect place to explore the wonderful island of La Digue

    One of the most beautiful resorts we have seen on La Digue with it’s wonderful chalets and the tropical garden. The chalets are made out of tropical wood with lots of love and details. We really enjoyed the daily housekeeping service with the blossoms on the bed. Our hosts Birgit and Alvis were really friendly and helpful, gave us advice and tipps throughout our stay. We enjoyed their hospitality and focus on satisfaction of every single guest. They were always responding quickly to every request we had. The Bois d’Amour is perfect to explore every little corner of the island by bike, which Alvis had prepared already for us when we arrived (they are by the way in perfect shape and much cheaper than other offers). We definitely recommend Birgits and Alvis little Paradise and advice to stay longer on La Digue. We stayed for 7 days at the Bois D’Amour and have met lots of “sad” neighbours who only stayed for 2-3 days and wished to have stayed longer. La Digue is perfect to relax and calm down, its atmosphere is unique. For sure we want to come back. Thank you Birgit and Alvis for the nice time we had at your place.

  • Beautiful

    Beautiful wooden houses, in the middle of a lush garden, bikes at the best price on the island, food on site if you want, proximity to a great take away, plenty of restaurant less than 10 minutes of cycling distance, close to anse source d’argent. Anyway everything is close on la digue, and you’ll have an amazing experience. Birgit and her companion will make you feel super welcome. The difficult part is leaving.
