Day 3 – Amber Mountain National Park

Day 3 – Amber Mountain National Park

The Montagne d’Ambre National Park stands as one of Madagascar’s oldest and most cherished parks. Situated just 30 kilometers from the city of Antsiranana (Diego Suarez), it encompasses a lush wet forest perched on a volcanic massif at an elevation of 1,475 meters above sea level. The park is easily accessible from Diego Suarez.

Within this ecological gem, you’ll encounter a rich tapestry of wildlife, including seven lemur species, among which the crowned lemurs are the most famous. Over 75 species of birds, including the iconic crested ibis, grace the skies above. You’ll also discover enchanting waterfalls, exotic plant species, a volcanic crater lake, and a treasure trove of thousands of plant varieties in the park’s botanical garden. This verdant wonderland is often referred to as the “Emerald Forest,” and it’s a testament to the astonishing biodiversity that Madagascar has to offer. Enjoy a picnic lunch in the park.
