The host is very very friendly, we loved chatting to him as well as the staff. Would 100% recommend the location if you’re looking to hike Mulanje, it’s just a short walk away from the entrance, but still far out from town so depends on what you...

Knusse kamers en prima ontbijt en diner! Uitstekende service en hele goede prijs/kwaliteitverhouding. De locatie is ook prachtig, je loopt zo Mount Mulanje op. Tip: neem wel een gids mee als je echt wil hiken.

This is the budget-friendly accommodation at the foot of Mulanje Mountain. Perfect for venturing off into the mountain. We also arrange Mount Mulanje tours to both individuals and groups. We provide an exceptional hospitality, well-organized hiking tours, and supporting local communities while preserving the natural beauty of Mount Mulanje through sustainable practices.
Hi, my name is Chipiliro Nedi, and I’m your host here at Mount Mulanje Stopover. I was born and raised in Mulanje, and over the years, I’ve developed a deep connection with Mulanje Mountain and the surrounding communities. Through Mount Mulanje Stopover, I provide comfortable and convenient accommodation for travelers, hikers, and nature lovers. I know all parts of the mountain very well—every trail, plateau, waterfall, and hidden corner—so I’m always happy to assist guests with hiking advice, route planning, and connections to reliable guides. My goal is to make your stay not just comfortable, but also memorable and authentic. Whether you're heading to Sapitwa Peak, Chambe Plateau, or Lichenya Plateau, I’m here to help you experience the very best of what Mulanje has to offer. Looking ahead, I plan to expand Mount Mulanje Stopover by adding more accommodation options and community-centered experiences that benefit both travelers and local residents. I’m passionate about sustainable tourism and hope to keep building something that brings value to the mountain, the people, and our guests.
Located in the scenic village of Likhubula, our property offers guests a gateway to the majestic Mulanje Mountain. We are just minutes away from Dziwe la Nkhalamba, a sacred waterfall and natural pool known for its cultural significance and tranquil beauty. The Likhubula local market, nearby primary school, and vibrant village life provide an authentic Malawian experience right at your doorstep. For outdoor enthusiasts, our location is ideal. We are positioned at the Likhubula Forest Office, the main entry point to Mulanje Mountain, making us a perfect base for treks and climbs. From here, guests can access some of the mountain’s most popular hiking routes: Sapitwa Peak (3,002m) – the highest point in Malawi, offering a challenging yet rewarding climb with breathtaking panoramic views. Chambe Plateau – known for its stunning rock cliffs and rare Mulanje Cedar trees, ideal for both hikers and rock climbers. Lichenya Plateau – a gentler, scenic route offering sweeping landscapes, rich biodiversity, and perfect spots for overnight stays in mountain huts. Whether you're a seasoned trekker aiming for Sapitwa or a nature lover looking to explore the plateaus, our neighborhood offers a unique blend of cultural immersion and natural adventure.
