You will be amazed to discover Iharana Bush Camp. You will be warmly hosted on the edge of a lake, in front of the Tsingy massif, within a few miles distance from the Mahavavy river.
This natural site is endowed with great riches and exceptional beauty. You are in the middle of nature, far away from televisions, air-conditioning and telephones. We favor charm and authenticity while reducing the impact on the environment.
Iharana Bush Camp is the most unusual among bush camps in Madagascar. Here, artificial tents are replaced by magnificent natural cottages. The sleeping facilities consist of eighteen individual cabanas. The organic architecture is inspired by traditional Malagasy housing. The combination of skills, the craft industry, arts and materials gives an original aspect to the camp, making it totally harmonious with its environment.
