We embark on a quest to see the fabled “Hapalemur aureus” – the Golden Bamboo Lemur – which is only found in Ranomafana. We will also see many different species of birds, such as Ground Rollers. The Park is particularly rich in flora and features many plant varieties unknown elsewhere, including different types of orchids and ferns.

Altitudes in the park range from 800 to 1,200 meters above sea level. In addition to its densely-forested hills, Ranomafana’s terrain is characterized by numerous small streams which plummet down to the beautiful Namorona River. Although much of the region has been logged, the park retains relatively large areas of primary forest.This day includes strenuous walks in the rainforest. After 4 hour’s visit, we will get back to the hotel for lunch, and get rest a little bit before starting the Guided night walk in the area around our hotel to try and spot the Rufous Mouse Lemur, the Greater Dwarf Lemur, and some of the other nocturnal wildlife.
