F O R R E S E R V A T I O N S C A L L U S O N 0845 130 6982 Malawi 62 Malawi is an unusual country - perhaps one of the most varied and beautiful in Africa. It has mountains and plains, forests and rivers, remote wildlife lodges and an exceptional array of mammals and birds, many of which are rarely found elsewhere. Of course Malawi’s most visual asset is its vast and beautiful lake, home to some spectacular freshwater fish. It has great tracts of white sandy beaches and remote islands which are a match for the best in the Indian Ocean. There are some superb resorts here offering scuba-diving, golf courses, windsurfing and sailing which when combined with perhaps horse-riding on the Nyika Plateau or a safari in Liwonde National Park or perhaps Zambia’s Luangwa Valley close by, make an unbeatable holiday. Nyika Plateau The highland plateau that forms Nyika National Park is Malawi's most scenic region. It is a truly wild area of vast open spaces where wildlife is plentiful - Eland, Roan, Reedbuck, Duiker, Burchell's Zebra, Klipspringer, Red, Grey, and Blue Duiker, Bushpig and Leopard are all resident. Nyika’s diversity of habitats make it a wonderful birdwatching destination with well over 400 species recorded for the area. Grassland species include Wattled Crane, Denham’s Bustard and Red-winged Francolin. Forest species include such rarities as Cinnamon Dove and Bar-tailed Trogon, while lower down in the Miombo woodland large feeding parties of birds can be found moving through the canopy including Black-backed Barbet, and Red and Blue Sunbird. On the grasslands there are tremendous numbers of butterflies and wildflowers – particularly between October and March. This exceptional destination may be enjoyed on foot, by vehicle and even on horseback. Chelinda Lodge is a sixteen bedded lodge consisting of eight beautifully constructed log cabins each with ensuite facilities and wonderful views. The cabins are interconnected by a wooded walkway which leads to a large central dining and bar area. Activities from the lodge include day and night game-drives, walks and horseriding.
