Bradt Malawi

Malawi--"the land of the lake"--is a dream destination for any traveler. Lush vegetation spreads out from the calm shores of Lake Malawi, developing into rolling plateaux and massifs that are ripe for exploration. Nature lovers have no fewer than five national parks and four game reserves to explore, while adventurers can kayak off Cape Maclear, hike up Mount Mulanje and cross the wildlife-rich Nyika Plateau on horseback. From breathtaking sunsets over the lakes to the stunning birdlife and grunting hippos of Liwonde National Park, the hidden treasures of this English-speaking republic are revealed by Briggs and Bartlett. Prepare to be charmed by a country that lends itself perfectly to easy, independent travel. *Take a boat trip on Lake Malawi *Sample fried caterpillars and sleep in lake lodges *Check out Malawi's dynamic music scene *Explore Dedza, Elephant Marsh and other remote gems *Move from "mazungu" to "bwenzi" using the Chichewa language sectionBriggs, Philip is the author of 'Bradt Malawi ', published 2006 under ISBN 9781841621708 and ISBN 1841621706.
