Malawi Bradt

Bradt travel Guides. Engelsk text. Edition 2019 This new eighth edition of Bradt s Malawi remains the only standalone practical guidebook to this magical East African destination, long known as the warm heart of Africa . Malawi is a small country with a big lake - accounting for around a third of its territory - and a big welcome. Written by Philip Briggs, arguably the world s most experienced guidebook author, this new edition benefits from a thorough country-wide update of all the practical information, with the addition of significant new game park accommodation. Dedicated chapters on background information, health and flora and fauna are complemented by a 19-chapter breakdown of the country and 37 maps, making this an ideal companion for backpackers, over-landers, wildlife spotters, birdwatchers and other outdoor enthusiasts. Included in the guide are the many outstanding adventure opportunities: kayaking on the vast lake amongst dug-out canoes; hikes from tea estates up to the heights Mount Mulanje; and watching the big five animals in wonderful natural surroundings. There s also a resurgent music scene, intriguing monuments built by former colonisers and compelling village culture to discover. With the reintroduction of species including lions - and the recent translocation of large numbers of elephants to Nkhotakota Wildlife Reserve - Malawi is a wildlife destination to savour. ​From luxury camps to local guesthouses, from rhino trekking to cycle tours and from crafts to cultural tourism, Bradt s Malawi covers every aspect of your trip.
