THE COUNTY

This waterway had its heyday in the days of gold panning. Today, Cayenne Islanders have built their weekend cabins here. Despite the noise of the outboard motors, the calm of the forest is soon restored as you pass the village of Cacao and the Saut Bief. Shortly afterwards, Bagot Creek can be climbed for a few kilometers. The river's often low water level means you'll have to be careful and pull your canoe along the creek's sandy bottom. Several bivouac sites are available.
