Ebony Forest can only be accessed via the entrance to Chamarell Waterfall & Colored Earth National Park. Entry currently costs €10 per person plus another €8 per person for access to the Ebony Forest

You can also hike from Chamarel (past Lakaz Chamarel) over the Piton du Canot and end up in the Ebony Forest (no €). However, it is very strenuous and only for experienced climbers, and you have to take the long way back on the country road. (Or back again over the Piton ☠️☠️☠️ but nobody wants to do that twice...)
