Nyika National Park

Nyika and the adjacent Vwaza Wildlife Reserve are situated in the north of Malawi . It is Malawi 's largest protected area; with Nyika extending to over 3134 km 2 and Vwaza to around 986 km 2 . The terrain varies from low lying wet season marshland at around 1000 m to over 2600 m at the highest point, Nganda Peak. The National Park is some 500 km by road north of Lilongwe . The road is good for most of the way but the last 40 km or so, as the dirt road rises up the escarpment, can be difficult and slow at times, depending on the state of grading and the season.
