Tsaratanana Reserve is a nature reserve of Madagascar.[3] The park is located at a high altitude and is closed to the public.[3] The reserve provides a significant amount of water to the area, and many rivers exist in the area, such as the Bemarivo River, Sambirano River and the Ramena or Mahavavy River.[3] The reserve also has two waterfalls and thermal baths.[3]

It includes Maromokotro peak which is the highest mountain of Madagascar at 2,876 m (9,436 ft)[4]

The forests in the park are threatened with illegal logging due to obtaining areas for illegal cultivation of marijuana, vanilla and rice.
