However, the way there is a bit arduous, because the roads running next to the RN 7 are often not much more than better moguls that promise little comfort during the journey. The main village of the Zafimaniry is Antoetra, but also the other villages, which however can only be reached on foot and with local accompaniment<\/strong> can be reached, are definitely worth a look. In these same villages you can see the Wood carving art of this people<\/strong> finally discover not only with the small figures, but also at the various houses of the village. Accordingly, photographic motifs are comprehensively provided.<\/p>\n

If you want to go to the villages, however, make sure you have the right equipment and a experienced guide<\/strong> eighth. Antoetra is also the starting point to the other remote Zafimaniry villages: Ifasina, Ankidodo, Ambohimanariva, Ambatolampy, Faliarivo, Fempina, Tetazandrotra, Vohitrandrina, Antetezandrota and Sakairo, but you can only get there on foot and with a local escort.
