The Red Tsingy in a day

The classic run: the RN6 north, the track through Sadjoavato, three hours on the rim while the light is still low, and lunch at La Rouge before the drive back.

Camp on the canyon rim

The site empties at four in the afternoon. This is the circuit for the hours after that, when the pinnacles go from orange to violet and the sky above the plateau fills up.

Down to the Irodo

The river that carved the tsingy still waters gardens two kilometres downstream. A community guide walks you through the fields, the rice, the raffia and the reason the site is protected.

The plateau, for families

Same canyon, different pace. Two kilometres of flat rim, a shaded picnic, and an hour in the kitchen at La Rouge making mofo gasy and koba with the cooks.

Photographer's light

Built around light, not sightseeing. Dusk, night, dawn and the first two hours after, with tripod room, a guide who knows where the shadows fall, and no pressure to move on.

Birds of the Sahafary

The scrub around the canyon holds Madagascar's dry-north specialities. Two dawn sessions with a birding guide, a scope, and a species list you actually get to keep.
