Nkhotakota Wildlife Reserve — Elephant Corridor Safari
Witness one of Africa's largest elephant translocations — 500 elephants moved to restore balance
Tour Overview
Nkhotakota is Malawi's oldest and largest wildlife reserve, covering 1,800 km² of miombo woodland and riverine forest. In 2016–2017, 500 elephants were translocated from Liwonde and Majete in Africa's largest-ever wildlife move. Today, the reserve is thriving — elephants, sable antelope, and diverse birdlife can be seen on game drives and walking safaris. This is conservation in action.
