The Black Lemur Cave Circuit begins with a trek through the village of Anjahakely and into valley below Black Lemur Camp until the cave entry about 4km after the camp. A labyrinth of narrow passages decorated with limestone rock art created by time and nature will take approximately 40 minutes to pass through.
This may be a chilling experience to the slightly claustrophobic and who fear the odd spider encounter but incredibly cute tiny bats who have made this cave their home will welcome visitors with a small flying circus.
Note: Do not bring a big rucksack or bulky equipment as the cave's passages are very narrow in places. A very tall or large framed persons will not fit through everywhere. Bring a flashlight or headlamp and a guide who knows the way or risk not finding the exit!
