'''Day 2: Fizono - [[Ampokafo]]'''<br>
''(8-hour walk, including searching for Red ruffed lemurs at the forest coridores of Ambatolaidama, part of Masoala National Park)''<br>
After an early morning breackfast breakfast we leave the little bungalows owned by the village and continue the trek by crossing several streams and climbing some steep, muddy hills. After 3 hours we come to [[Ambatolaidama]] at the border of [[Masoala National Park]]. The forest is ideal to see [[Red ruffed lemur|Red ruffed lemurs]] and there is also a park rangers base where they take care of a tree-nursery. We take a lunch picnic and wait for the sounds of the Red ruffed lemurs. After lunch we go and look for them in the forest. In the afternoon we continue the trek until the village of Ampokafo where we will camp for overnight. The porters will help us in anything they know, from setting up our tents to cooking our meals at night.

'''Day 4: Tsararapaka - [[Marivorano]]:'''<br>
''(7-hour walk)''<br>
Breakfast in the camp. We continue our trek which is less hard over a mountain today, but the first 3 hours we are totally in the forest until we reach the [[Befilipo]] fields. Thereafter we are again in the tuff forest of Masoala National Park. We may see several typical wildlifes, such as: Red ruffed lemur, Red-breasted coua, Blue coua and Madagascar wood-rail. Since Befilipo we follow the riverside. This path will be wet with lots of slippery rocks in the water and we will cross the river countless times. Picnic lunch along the way. Before we eat you can take a bath in the river near [[Betsirebika]]. Throughout our afternoon walk we will see people working in the fields. At night we camp near the small village
Marivorano.
'''Day 5: Marivorano - [[Antanandavahely]]'''<br>
''7-hour walk''<br>
After breakfast we will walk for 7 hours. To reach Antanandavahely we follow the main stream now and then until he enters into a big river and gets much stronger. You have the opportunity to see birds and chameleons. Muddy picnic along the way at [[Ambalavy]]. There are many camping areas in the park, but the national park organisation tries to convince the people to stay at one place and to form a village. The forest already decreased and the villagers perform [[tavy]], a slash-and-burn system to plant rice. At the Antalaha district , there are many NGO's, for example [http://www.grainedevie.org Grain de Vie ] with the slogan "Time to plant the tree nursery", regenerating the forest. At Cap Est we camp in the small village Antanandavahely. To reach the village we go by canoe for 3.5 hours to see the wild crocodiles. Also our porters will stop here, as the rest of the tour is sitting in a canoe and taking taxi-moto or [[taxi-brousse]].
