Map of Malawi
Malawi is bordered by Tanzania to the north, Zambia to the west, Mozambique to the south, south-east and south-west and Lake Malawi to the east. Malawi is well known as the warm heart of Africa. Its people are very friendly and the country has developed a strong tradition of welcoming foreign tourists and making them feel at home.

The main feature of the country and its primary tourist attraction is Lake Malawi. The lake is 584 kilometres long and forms part of the southern extension of the Great Rift Valley. A number of tourist lodges and hotels have been established on the lakeshore and the Cape Maclear National Park provides access to one of the most beautiful areas on the lakeshore.

Mountains and National Parks
Kasungu National Park is Malawi's premier wildlife reserve with a wide variety of big game and other wild creatures, which inhabit the area. A number of other reserves preserve a wide variety of bio-diversity within the country ranging from the highland moorlands of Nyika National Park, tropical riverine forests, lakes and rivers in Liwonde National Park, to the hot and sultry bushlands of the Shire River Valley south of Blantyre. Mount Mulanje on Malawi's south-eastern border with Mozambique rises dramatically above the surrounding plains and is a mecca for walkers, birders and outdoor enthusiasts. The summit areas are reminiscent of the vegetation of the mountains of the south-western Cape in South Africa, 3 500 kilometres to the south-west, and temperatures can plummet dramatically in sharp contrast to the sultry, tropical climate experienced at the base of the mountain.

Travelling
Malawi is connected regionally by air to South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Tanzania and Kenya. Internationally, Malawi is connected by air to the United Kingdom via Zambia. Road connections through the Tete Corridor in Mozambique from Zimbabwe are good. Road connections via Mbeya in southern Tanzania and Chipata in Zambia provide the easiest road connections into Malawi. Road connections to Mozambique are very poor. The internal road network is relatively good.
