Despite the sudden appearance of modern structures, Black River offers a more active yet quieter experience – resorts are few and far between and you have a choice of sea and mountains when it comes to getting out and exploring. Sensational hiking, scenic shorelines, top-notch shing and interesting historical relics are all within arm’s reach.
