  • Advisory equipment

    • To reach Namoly and Morarano, we recommend the use of an off-road vehicle. The two tracks Ambalavao-Namoly and Tanambao-Morarano are difficult to access during the rainy season from November to March.

     

    • It is important to note that, during the winter season from April to September, temperatures drop well below 0°C, and the climb to the Imarivolanitra summit requires at least one overnight stay at altitude.
