38 Places Where Nature Looks Straight Out of a Sci-Fi Movie

25. The Stone Forest of Madagascar – A Maze of Razor-Sharp Rocks

Imagine a forest made entirely of jagged stone, where massive limestone formations rise like skyscrapers, forming an unbelievable, labyrinthine landscape. Welcome to Tsingy de Bemaraha, Madagascar’s "Stone Forest," a place so sharp and treacherous that parts of it remain unexplored. These razor-thin rock spires were shaped by millions of years of erosion, forming one of the most dangerous natural landscapes in the world. Some of the peaks are so sharp that walking without shoes is impossible! With hanging bridges, towering cliffs, and dramatic formations, this alien-looking terrain feels like it belongs on a distant, rocky exoplanet rather than on Earth.
