Association Mitsinjo

Welcome to Mitsinjo!

You will find our office and the entrance to our forest on the left side of the road leading to Andasibe village, 2 km after the turn off Route National 2 between Antananarivo and Toamasiana and 200 m before Andasibe National Park.

By the way, did you know that the famous BBC series with David Attenborough observing the Indris were filmed in the Mitsinjo Park?
