Tour Overview

Mount Mulanje is one of the most dramatic mountains in Africa — a massive granite inselberg rising abruptly from the surrounding plains to 3,002m. The massif covers an area of 650 km² and features numerous peaks, deep gorges, and cedar forests. Multi-day hiking routes connect mountain huts, crossing dramatic plateaus and summiting peaks with panoramic views. The tea estates at the base add a cultural dimension to this adventure.
