Things to Do in Ankarafantsika National Park
Starting points for your perfect trip
Dancing Sifakas
Witness the Coquerel's sifaka—Madagascar's famous 'dancing lemur'—bounding across open ground on two legs with arms raised. These critically endangered primates visit park headquarters daily, leaping up to 10 meters between trees and sunbathing with arms outstretched at dawn.
Sacred Lake Ravelobe Safari
Glide across the 27-hectare sacred lake by flat-bottomed boat, searching for the critically endangered Madagascar fish eagle—one of the world's six rarest raptors. Your guide shares the legend of Ravelobe, the defiant king whose spirit the Sakalava believe lives on in the lake's sacred crocodiles.
Nocturnal Lemur Safari
After dark, headlamps reveal a hidden world as expert guides track the golden-brown mouse lemur—found only here and named for Lake Ravelobe where it was discovered in 1994. Search for woolly lemurs, sportive lemurs, and the rhinoceros chameleon in forests alive with nocturnal activity.
Ankarokaroka Canyon
Journey through savanna to the Ankarokaroka Canyon—a dramatic lavaka erosion landscape often called Madagascar's Grand Canyon. Time your arrival for golden hour when the multicolored sandstone walls glow in shades of red, orange, and gold against the surrounding dry forest.
