    Absalon Waterfall very accessible and very beautiful waterfall located at Fort de France on the road from Balata to Absalon. No hiking just descend the slightly steep staircase with caution accessible to everyone The waterfall is magnificent, the water is crystal clear and the unmissable place where you can take a bath, discover the fauna, flora and architecture of the bridge. After the bath at the Absalon waterfall you could take another hot water bath this time, at the spa which is located 200 meters away on foot To finish at the departure of the Absalon spa resort, you will find different hiking trails which will help you discover other magnificent places in our beautiful Martinique Didier Waterfall Absalom Loop Etc...... Place to preserve

    Magnifique cascade, accessible en 5-10 mins part des marches. Attention sa glisse et c’est très étroit. Le décor et magnifique avec la forêt autour. Impossible de répartir sans prendre un petit bain pour profiter de cette magnifique nature martiniquaise.

    Cascade très accessible par un escalier. Celui-ci se trouve juste après le pont. Il est possible de s'y baigner. Je recommande !

    Nice little waterfall. Not grandiose but easy to access. Go down to the start of the hike, then walk back up to the small bridge that you crossed above. Stairs (a little hidden) on the left of the bridge allow you to go down to the waterfall. Easy descent with the guardrail.

    Cascade hyper accessible grâce à une volée de marches en dur donc tout à fait pratiquable avec des enfants (nous avions notre bébé de 2 ans et demi dans le sac à dos de rando). L'eau est fraîche et claire et la présence du pont juste au-dessus est tout à fait spectaculaire.

    Waterfall in a wild and almost fantastic setting at the same time because it feels like a film set. Very easy to access, lots of hiking to get there. The place is not very big but definitely worth the detour.

    Pretty little waterfall. However, I actually preferred the view into the other direction. Easily accessible. You have to walk down about a couple of steps on the left hand side of the bridge. Parking available behind the bridge at the side of the road or about 3min walk downhill at the end of the road.

    A magnificent waterfall with scenic settings, a steampunk atmosphere straight out of a film that is worth the detour. Nothing complicated to get there, just go down the stairs. However, be careful because it can be very slippery. Note to passing tourists: Please do not poison us with your cigarettes. There are enough places to smoke without disturbing others in a natural and preserved place. Respect the places and those around you, we do not come into nature to breathe harmful substances but on the contrary to recharge our batteries and be amazed.

    We left from Didier station and trudged through lush vegetation to this pretty waterfall. Very refreshing!

    Montez en voiture à travers un lotissement, un peu étrange puis vous arrivez directement dans la forêt. Stationnez sur le bas côté. Petit chemin de randonnée environs 10 minutes et vous arrivez à la cascade. Très sympa, peu fréquenté.
