National Park — UNESCO

Tsingy de Bemaraha, the stone forest

Classified UNESCO World Heritage, the Tsingy de Bemaraha is one of the most spectacular landscapes on the planet: a forest of razor-sharp limestone needles, sculpted for 200 million years.

The park is only accessible in the dry season (May to November). Roads are impracticable the rest of the year. The Grand Tsingy circuit lasts 4 to 6 hours with acrobatic passages and a suspension bridge over a 40-meter canyon.
