Today, the baobab tour is a new destination for all those who want to enjoy trekking. Recommended for trekking or hiking enthusiasts. Rich in uphill paths, this circuit leads to a belvedere of 200m altitude. The panoramic view from this point is exceptional, a view that can reach up to Nosy Faly ... sensations guaranteed. The duration of the visit is on average 1 hour from Antotorogno village. One of the specific characteristics of the site is also traditional medicine: the "hotra" or massage which makes it possible to treat certain diseases and specifically fractures and sprains, using compositions of leaves as medication. This method of treatment is recognised by the Ministry of Health through the associations of "tradi-practitioners"; a gift that is handed down to family.
