Pic Boby

Inselbergs and Crystalline Monoliths

Pic Boby, also known by its Malagasy name Imarivolanitra, is a granite peak in the Andringitra Massif of south central Madagascar, reaching about 2,658 meters and ranking as the second highest mountain entirely within the country. The peak forms part of the ancient granite massif that gives Andringitra National Park its rugged character, its bare rock summit and steep granite slopes rising well above the surrounding highland terrain and drawing hikers on a multi-day route to its top.
