Andringitra National Park

Ambalavao Madagascar

ANDRINGITRA NATIONAL PARK
This recently gazetted national park, 46 km south of Ambalavao, protects some of Madagascar's most impressive scenery. The second and third highest peaks - Pic Boby and Pic Bory stand within its boundaries. The area is characterised by remarkable granitic domes, exquisite waterfalls, verdant valleys and, at the highest altitudes, remote heathlands. This is the one place in Madagascar where snow has been known to fall and temperatures can fall below zero on winter nights.
Andringitra is best visited from late August to March, when small wildlife is most active and most flowering plants bloom. Lush mid- and high-altitude rainforest is rich in fascinating small wildlife and the massif is known for its frog, bird and orchid diversity. The lemurs, which are not habituated to the presence of humans, include bamboo lemurs and ringtails. Andringitra is a favourite with hikers and walkers.
There are campsites and a WWF 'gite' or mountain hut. We arrange fully organised camping in Andringitra, all meals and equipment provided.
