Three warnings:
- On the main liaisons, like Tana-Analavory-Ampefy-Soavinandriana, the road is in good shape. So good it can kill. Not always but there are some cliffs & one must pay attention to not drive that fast... otherwise...
- In the contrary, to access all the sites of interest (Amparaky geysers; Itasy lake & islets; Liliha waterfalls), one has to drive on 4-5 km on once tarred roads that are now losing the tar surface. Bumpy rides if one is in a hurry.
- Esp. to access the geysers, avoid driving low cars (VW Golf, little Peugeots). We came across many of those having to turn back & skip the visit to the geysers. Good to notice that later on, I could spot those cars at the Liliha waterfalls, i.e they could ride the semi-tarred road to there, not the one to the geysers.
Just choose a pick-up, a 4wd, a station car... all of those would be fine.

People told me, that there were still crocodiles living in this lake. I did not see any. This was the view from the small hotel, where I stayed.
