Amber Forest Reserve, Wildlife reserve in northern Madagascar.

Amber Forest Reserve is a protected area in northern Madagascar covering about 48 square kilometers with different natural habitats. The land supports many plants and animals found nowhere else on Earth.

The reserve forms part of the protected-area complex of Montagne d'Ambre National Park, in the far north of Madagascar near Joffreville and Sakaramy. Its 4,810 hectares are managed for conservation only, with no other land use. The sources give no founding date for the reserve itself.

The reserve is known in Malagasy as alan'ny Ambohitra, and its French and English names refer to the amber-coloured flowers of certain trees that cover the mountain and shine from afar. It forms part of the protected-area complex of Montagne d'Ambre National Park, north of Joffreville and Sakaramy.

You can reach the reserve from the nearby town of Joffreville, where local guides offer walking tours. It works best to arrive early in the morning when wildlife is most active and light is better for observing.

The name comes from the flowers of certain trees that cover the mountain and shine amber from afar, as the reserve's own name account states. The reserve is also called alan'ny Ambohitra in Malagasy. It lies north of Joffreville and Sakaramy and covers 4,810 hectares, with a conservation-only role.
