Isalo National Park, located near Ranohira, Ihorombe, Madagascar, is renowned for its diverse landscapes, including sandstone formations, canyons, and unique flora and fauna. Accessibility can be challenging due to rugged terrain, making guided tours highly recommended over solo exploration for safety and navigation. The dry season (April to October) is the best time to visit, avoiding the heavy rains that can restrict access. Costs vary depending on the tour operator, duration, and level of comfort, but expect to budget for park entrance fees, guide services, and accommodation. A typical visit lasts 2-3 days to explore the main trails and viewpoints. Be prepared for hiking in hot, dry conditions and bring plenty of water.
