  • The most common route is from Ambanja to Marotolana-Beangona Ambevy along the RN4-12, followed by a boat trip across the Sambirano.
  • In the northern part, the entrance is at Beramanja RN6 about 30 km south of Ambilobe, followed by a secondary road to Anaborano Ifasy.

  Tips for reaching the Park/Reserve:

  A 4*4 vehicle is essential to reach the Manongarivo outskirts, especially during the rainy season. In all cases, you'll need to walk long distances to enter the PA, including climbs that should be done under the guidance of a local guide. In these different entry points, it is necessary to hire local porters and guides.
