The area of Ampefy is characterised by volcanic landscape and crater has been classified as an ecotourism destination by [[ANGAP_becomes_Madagascar_National_Parks|Madagascar National Parks]]. Volcanoes dating back two million years ago and over 40 lakesof volcanic origin are scattered in a region of 400km². '''
The climate in this region is relatively cool throughout the year. Almost all surrounding hills and mountains have been completely deforested and made available for farming by the [[Merina]] people. Everywhere farmers can be seen working on their fields, mainly growing tomatoes, corn, pumpkins, avocados, manioc etc. Green rice fields reach the marshland and shores of the lakes. Ampefy is an ideal starting point for hiking. Climbing one of the many hills offers fantastic views of the area. The trails lead through plantations, rice fields and farm land. Pirogue tours on the lakes can easily be arranged with the locals. Some hotels also rent out bicycles. == Atractions Attractions around Ampefy ==- Chute * [[Lily Waterfall]] or Les Chutes de la Lily<br>- * [[Geysers of Andranomandraotra]]<br>- * [[Lake Itasy]]<br>* [[Orphanage]]
