Stay at Huntingdon House on the Satemwa Tea Estate, where polished wood floors, clawfoot tubs, and manicured rose gardens meet panoramic views of Mount Mulanje. Enjoy tea tastings and estate walks before setting off on a guided mountain hike. The nearby Mulanje Massif offers some of Africa’s finest trekking, with towering peaks, hidden waterfalls, and rare bird species to discover along the trails.
Over on the Zomba Plateau, step into a secluded retreat at Zomba Forest Lodge—a charming, off-the-grid hideaway surrounded by pine and indigenous woodland. With open fires, homemade meals, and no Wi-Fi to distract you, this is a place to reconnect with nature and yourself. After long hikes past streams, viewpoints, and forest glades, return to the lodge for warm hospitality and peace.
The Mulanje and Zomba highlands are ideal for active travelers who want to get off the beaten path. Hike to Chambe Peak, one of the highest points in southern Africa, or follow lesser-known trails to hidden waterfalls and forest clearings. Look out for samango monkeys, sunbirds, and tree ferns as you climb through cloud forest and exposed rock faces.
In Zomba, explore trails that crisscross rivers and rise to panoramic viewpoints like Emperor’s View and Queen’s View. Visit local farms and markets, or simply enjoy a forest walk followed by tea on a shady verandah.
