Grand Galet Falls, Waterfall in Saint-Joseph, Réunion, France
Grand Galet Falls cascades down 45 meters through multiple tiers into clear pools, forming part of the Langevin River in southern Réunion.
The waterfall has become an integral component of Réunion National Park, established to preserve the natural heritage of this French territory.
Local residents gather at Grand Galet Falls every Sunday for traditional family picnics along the riverbank, maintaining long-standing community customs.
Visitors can access the falls by taking the National Road from Saint-Joseph toward Langevin village, turning left at the sugar cane weighing station.
The site offers beginner-friendly canyoning circuits that combine natural water slides, jumps, and zip lines through dense tropical vegetation.
