Analamazaotra National Park is a national park of Madagascar. The park is in the eastern portion of Madagascar's Central Highlands. The neighbouring Analamazaotra Forest Station is a local reforestation effort. It adjoins Andasibe-Mantadia National Park to the north.
The reserve is situated in the region Alaotra-Mangoro, close to Moramanga and Andasibe.[2]
Analamazaotra National Park is located from Moramanga and is bordered on the south by National road 2, a secondary road to Andasibe and a railway line between Antananarivo and Toamasina.
Analamazaotra Special Reserve, also known as Périnet-Analamazaotra, was established in 1970. On 21 April 2015, the special reserve was combined with the adjacent Analamazaotra Forest Station to create Analamazaotra National Park via Decree No. 2015-732.[3]
