Canyoneering
Madagascar offers astonishing beautiful locations for this activity.
Here we would like to introduce you the places we consider to
be
the best in the whole country for canyon descending:
- Isalo national park
But only during the rainy season from November till May. Canyoneering tours in the Isalo national park require several days and combine trackings, technical descents and jumps and swims.
- Marojejy National Park
Marojejy National Park, on the north-east, not only protects one of the
most beautiful and biologically diverse mountain environments of the
country, but also wonderful cascades and a extraordinary landscape of
pure beauty. The hard conditions, the rainy weather and the
high
degree of difficulty turns it however to a destination only for the
experienced travellers.
- Amber mountains
Amber Mountain, the first operational canyon in the island, opened in February 2000, the Mountain of the French, is ideal for initiation. The easy descent begins after just a 30 minute walk.
Other interesting points are
Nosy
Varika, a spot located in west coast which offers a range of nigh
cascades in cliffs of various levels and difficulties. Other tougher
spots are the Bay of Diego Suarez, northwest oriented, reserved for
those with experience.
