    Beautiful lake, stunning views of the surrounding landscape as well, local guide was informative and spoke excellent English. Only takes about 1-1.5 hours to hike around at a leisurely pace, but if you want to stay longer, you could as it's a very relaxing spot. Only loses 1 star because, like others have mentioned, you will get pestered to buy random souvenirs from some of the locals, who although persistent they were by no means the worst we encountered as we headed south. The road to get there is bad, but again, I've seen much worse in Madagascar, so don't let that put you off. It was worth a visit if you have an afternoon spare in Antsirabe.

    Stunning blue lake, very peaceful place with beautiful story told by the guide. There is a small fee to pay for entrance and guidance. You can also buy stones from the village’s girls, they use this money to pay school fees.

    Nice view and beautiful lake. However, surrounding are not so great. Local people walk with you around 2km asking to buy some souvenirs. Actually there around 10 of them so don't expect mercy if you buy one. Entrance fee is ok, giude fee included but actually no guides there, we walked alone (even better). After coming back, they ask money for "car keeping"

    Blue/green lake. Really beautiful but you have to hike up there. You can reach the lake with a taxi an hour from Antsirabe.

    Awesome one's you get there it's about 30 minutes from Antiserabe but the road is very dusty and will shake you through.

    Very special and beautiful places, although it is not huge, but quite spectacular. but the road is totally a disaster if you ride motorcycle here. I will say just hire a taxi to visit here. You can jump and swim in the beautiful lake. If you stop in Antsirabe, must visit!!! BTW you have to pay entrance fee and you must hire a guide even the route is so simple and short, that's their rules, and the fee you paid is for local village development. I think it is difinely worth.

    Beautiful lake inside a sleeping volcano. You can get there by foot 10km from ansirabe or nearby village, or by 4x4 car. Enterance is 15000Ar for local guide (a must) and 5Ar for each person. the lake tour is about an hour and you can get into the lake if you didn't eat pork before - which is a local Faddi. The lake is 100m~ deep and have some good jumping points, the 20m one seems a bit dengeraus..

    Small hike to get there. Place is magical. Get ready for some loud kids selling souvenirs!
