We found a scrappy piece of paper pinned to a communal notice board stating: ” Strictly on a need to know basis: Absolutely use this contact to be your your guide for Malawi’s best kept secret: Mount Mulanje. You will, when you summit, be tired. But, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. Enjoy the view and the stars ” We therefore naturally and curiously made contact. It then wasn’t long before our bags were packed with food, water and a warm sweater as we assembled at what is considered to be the cradle of human civilisation. Mount Mulanje
At 3000m Mount Mulanje, in southern Malawi, isn’t just the highest peak in Malawi, its the highest in Central Africa.
