Indri and other lemurs
The indri is the largest living lemur, famous for its haunting song, heard mostly in the morning. Andasibe is also home to diademed sifakas, brown lemurs, chameleons, frogs and many birds.
Analamazaotra, Mantadia and community reserves
Analamazaotra has the easiest trails and the habituated indri groups. Mantadia is wilder, with longer and hillier walks. Community reserves nearby offer night walks to find mouse lemurs and chameleons.
Add the aye-aye at Palmarium
East of Andasibe, the Pangalanes canal leads to the Palmarium reserve, where lemurs roam freely and where you can look for the strange nocturnal aye-aye. Our 5-day trip combines both.
