Sentier Molokoï, Hiking trail in Roura, France
The Molokoï Trail extends for 18 kilometers through dense Amazonian forest, connecting Cacao village to National Road 2 at Coralie Track.
The trail follows traditional forest paths used by local communities to navigate through French Guiana's wilderness over many generations.
Near the trailhead, the Hmong community of Cacao maintains a market and an insect museum, representing the cultural diversity of French Guiana.
Three shelters with hammocks are positioned along the trail, requiring advance registration and a 5-euro contribution for maintenance purposes.
The path earned its name from the Molokoï turtle species that inhabits the area and features natural jacuzzi formations in clear water streams.
