Ambalavao (New Valley) is a small city in the central highlands of Madagascar, near Fianarantsoa. The town has the largest zebu market in Madagascar where herdsmen come to sell their cattle after walking with their zebu herds from virtually all parts of the country. Andringitra park borders the north edge of the town where an WWF office provides information and guides.

The National road (RN7) connects with Fianarantsoa and Toliara.
