The area is located about 25km from the coast of the Indian Ocean and 20km inland from the road between Antalaha and Sambava.
The land has been a designated farming area for three generations, two of which used utilised the land for farming purposes.
Although much grows in the area, including wild crops, no major farming activity has been active since about year 2000, which has consequently left vegetation on most areas grow the way nature designs it.
Crops and plants, partly wild, with some small-scale cultivation activity for personal needs by caretakers from Vohitrarivo village, include corn, sugarcane, pinapple, mango, lychee, cococut, banana, pepper, bamboo, breadfruit, vanilla, cassava, coffee, papaya, cocoa, chilli, cinammon and more.
From the crossing at Ambodipont Isahana, a village of about 300 inhabitants, take the road inland passing the village of Tananabaovao after 4.6km, a village of about 100 inhabitants. 7.6km after is the village of Ambinanifaho with about 2,000 inhabitants. 8km further is the village of Ambodilalona with about 800 inhabitants. 3km thereafter is Lanjarivo with about 1,000 inhabits. 2km from there is Vohitrarivo with about 500 inhabitants.
About 1km upstream from Vohitrarivo lies the farmland. The land includes the river Farariana which originates at Marojejy. There are no inhabited villages upstream between the farming area and the river source. Downstream after the land, Farariana joins with Tananbao river to the south which streams further into the Indian Ocean.
