To visit Analamerana Special Reserve it is best to start in [[Diego Suarez]] (Antsiranana), from where the paved road [[RN6]] leads 60 kilometres south to [[Sadjoavato]]. From there it is another 25 kilometres along a very bad road to the municipality of [[Ankarongana]]. This road is only accessible during the dry season from May to November. From Ankarongana one has to continue by motorcycle, bike or foot to Analamerana Special Reserve.
