The Independent has recently featured Madagascar in its round-up of ‘Six of the Coolest Cycling Destinations’.

Part of what makes Madagascar a cyclist and adventurer’s dream destination is the unusual and dramatic landscape, plus given that for an island it is pretty big.  It is in fact the world’s fourth largest island. According to this article, “Biking is one of the best ways to spy Madagascar’s exotic wildlife, from brilliantly hued chameleons and oddly shaped baobab trees to adorable lemurs”.
