'''Lily Waterfall or ''Les Chutes de la Lily'' is a waterfall full of legend located near the village of [[Ampefy]]. 4,5 Four and a half kilometres west from of Ampefy there is a junction with the sign to Lily Waterfalls on the leftside of the road. From there a dirt road in poor condition leads for another five kilometres to the waterfall, passing green farm landfarmland, numerous fields and a small village. Volcanic hills similar to those out of Tele-Tubbi-Country in a fantasy Teletubbies landscape frame the surrounding area.'''
After a 1.5-hour walk one reaches the idyllic village of [[Antafofo]], which lies directly at the powerful, 23 metres high waterfall. The legend about village offers several small Malagasy restaurants. A tiny watermill supplies parts of Antafofo with electricity. Women and children offer carved volcanic rocks as souvenirs. There is a visitors fee of 2,000 Ariary per person and a parking fee of 1,000 Ariary per car. Next to the waterfall dates back about 40 yearscar parking area there is a small shop.
