Lawronga Forest Lodge - Viphya Plateau - Malawi



Thursday 25.04:

Via Mzuzu we drove up to the Viphya Plateau. Huge granite domes rise here from the earth. Large areas of forests on the plateau were unfortunately cut down to leave a barren landscape behind .



  From the main road we turned off to reach the Luwawa Forest Lodge. We were greeted by the English owner who guided us to our rooftop campsite. The surrounding densely wooded hills, the little lake, the fog and the cool temperatures could have been a place in Northern Europe as well. We immediately went on a 2 hours hike through the forest up one of the hills. At night we went into the sauna in the middle of Africa! It was heated up by firewood. Afterwards we went to the lake to with the full moon lighting us the way.
