Lokobe National Park, located on the island of Nosy Be in Madagascar, is renowned for its lush rainforest and diverse wildlife unique to the region.
Lokobe National Park is a protected area situated in the northwestern part of Madagascar, on the island of Nosy Be. This small yet ecologically important park safeguards some of the island's last remaining lowland rainforests, offering a sanctuary to an array of endemic species. The park is particularly famous for its population of lemurs, including the critically endangered black lemur, and a variety of reptiles, birds, and plants that cannot be found anywhere else in the world. Historically, Lokobe has been a critical site for conservation efforts aimed at preserving the unique biodiversity of Madagascar's rainforests. Visitors are drawn to Lokobe not only for its ecological significance but also for the opportunity to engage in guided nature walks and experience the raw beauty of an unspoiled tropical forest. Accessed primarily by boat from the nearby village of Hell-Ville, the park provides an authentic experience of Madagascar's natural heritage.
