Breathtaking Views at Mlowe View

Getting There

• Car

  From the center of Livingstonia, head south on the main road (M5 road) towards the Mlowe direction. Continue on this road for approximately 10 km. As you approach Mlowe, look for signs indicating the Mlowe view. You will need to turn off the main road onto a smaller dirt path leading to Mlowe view. Ensure your vehicle is capable of handling rough terrain as the last stretch may not be well-maintained. Parking is available at the viewing area.

• Public Transport (Minibus)

  Catch a minibus from Livingstonia heading towards Mlowe. These minibuses typically leave from the main bus station in Livingstonia and run throughout the day until late afternoon. The fare is generally affordable, around 500 MWK. Inform the driver that you are going to Mlowe view, and they will drop you off at the nearest point. From there, you may need to walk approximately 1 km along a dirt path to reach the viewing area. Be prepared for a short hike.

• Walking

  If you prefer to walk from Livingstonia, you can follow the M5 road south for about 10 km. This is a scenic route, but be mindful of traffic. Once you reach the fork where the Mlowe sign is located, take the dirt path on the right. It is a pleasant walk, but it may take around 2-3 hours depending on your pace. Wear comfortable shoes and carry water, as amenities are limited along the way.
