The Northern Region of Malawi
The regional capital, Mzuzu, has one major hotel and several smaller establishments. The town is approached from the south by a road across the rolling hills of the Viphya Plateau or by the lakeshore road. There are two game areas in the region: the beautiful and unique plateau of Nyika National Park and the Vwasa Marsh Game Reserve. Both have new luxury lodges as well as simpler accommodation. Also in the region is the famous Livingstonia Mission with its interesting museum. Access is difficult up the escarpment road but the Mission can also be reached from the east via Rumphi. Nearby, the Manchewe Falls spill off the escarpmen
