Rochesters Falls

A 5km walk from Souillac, past the Terracine sugar mill and through the cane fields along a well- marked route, brings you to this gushing little number. The falls are not so much high as wide a sort of pocket-sized Niagara. A car can just about make it along the potholed cane field tracks; this is some thing a new tax won’t risk, but an old one might for around Rs 300 return from Souillac.
