Le refuge de Farino, Riverside campground in Farino, New Caledonia
Le Refuge de Farino is a campground set along a creek in Farino's forest, offering bungalows that sleep between two and six people. The site spreads along the waterway with trees covering the surrounding terrain.
The refuge developed as part of Farino's growth as a Station Verte, reflecting New Caledonia's focus on nature-based tourism. This movement placed the local environment at the heart of the visitor experience.
The refuge maintains ties with local Kanak communities and reflects their traditional knowledge of the forest and its medicinal plants. This connection to local ways shapes how the land is cared for and how visitors experience it.
The refuge provides a shared kitchen with refrigerator, microwave, and stove plus hot water for washing and bathing. Come prepared for basic conditions and bring sturdy shoes for exploring the forest paths.
A hiking trail of about thirty minutes leads to a natural waterfall hidden in the forest. Swimmers can cool off in the creek's fresh water pools along the way.
