This vulnerable part of Madagascar, its trees, animals and waters, shall be protected and serve as a sanctuary for all who want to see, hear and smell its beauty, and for all who are coming after us. All activities are self-funded; support and donations are most welcome.
Mangoky Reserve Tours is part of the association and is dedicated to offering environmentally friendly tours on and around the Mangoky River. This gives enthusiasts the opportunity to explore this unique area in a sustainable way while contributing to its conservation.
