'''Vohemar to Mazava is a part of one of the best bike routes in the country with indescribably scenery along the whole way is indescribably beautiful. With the exception of a few hills, passing little villages it's mostly flat and friendly farmers straight biking along the way. The tarred road is in excellent condition and but with the odd small potholes which is more a problem for cars than for bikes. Every few kilometres there's a small village with friendly locals greeting bypassers.''' [[File:Vohemar_to_Mazava_by_bike_006.jpg|600px]] The traffic is minimal especially, during the rainy season from December until June, with only a few passing crowded taxi-brousses and freight trucks throughout the day making it even relatively safe for even the odd reptile to cross the road now and then without being flattened.'''

[[File:Vohemar_to_Mazava_by_bike_006There are no tourists, although this will likely change in a few years as the infamous RN5 route between Ambilobe and Vohemar is being completed. Meanwhile, the area remains relatively isolated and without the odd tourist couples wastefully spacing out in chauffeur-driven 4x4 cars.jpg|600px]]
