- Camp & Lodge On the Northern shores of Lake Malawi lies Chitimba Camp. Chitimba is a village situated 122 km south of the Malawi/Tanzania border Karonga, and 143 km from the capital of the north, Mzuzu. The lodge/campsite is set on a beautiful golden sandy beach, amongst banana palms and papaya trees, surrounded by the famous Livingstonia and Nyika mountains. It lies off a newly complete tarmac road (only a few potholes!) that runs straight through the country, from the border all the way to the capital city of Lilongwe.
The lodge/campsite caters for overland trucks, backpackers and the littlest of hoboes. It is the first (heading south) or last (heading North) stop in Malawi for overlanders. |
