Roche Merveilleuse, Scenic viewpoint in Cilaos, Réunion Island, France.

Roche Merveilleuse is a natural viewpoint on a small flattened ledge measured at 1,435 metres altitude, near the centre of Cilaos in the Hauts of Réunion. From it, the view takes in the northern part of the Cilaos cirque, with the town's light-walled, red- and grey-roofed buildings and a small dark pond on the valley floor below, green mountain ridges behind them and low white clouds catching the slopes.

The outcrop formed through volcanic activity that shaped Réunion Island, creating this elevated viewpoint. Over time, the rock was sculpted by weather and the valley below was carved by erosion into its present amphitheater shape.

The name Roche Merveilleuse, "Marvellous Rock", is the name given to this small flat ledge above Cilaos. The site is heavily visited, above all by walkers: the forest road 10 forms a loop off the departmental road 241 towards Bras Sec, and a hiking path briefly merges here with the GR R1 and GR R2 long-distance trails.

The viewpoint has a parking area and picnic zones with kiosks where visitors can rest and enjoy a meal. An orientation table explains the main landmarks and helps guests identify the mountain peaks and valley areas they see around them.

The viewpoint sits on a small flat ledge measured at 1,435 metres, on the forest road 10 that loops off the departmental road 241 toward Bras Sec. Hikers also reach it on foot, where the trail briefly merges with the GR R1 and GR R2 long-distance routes, which is why walkers make up much of its visitors.
