Vwaza Marsh Game Reserve
Vwaza Marsh Game Reserve, Game reserve in northwestern Malawi
Vwaza Marsh Game Reserve encompasses 1,000 square kilometers of Mopane woodland, Miombo forest, and marshy wetlands along the Zambian border.
The establishment of this protected zone created a natural corridor between Malawi and Zambia, enabling unrestricted movement of elephants and buffalo herds across borders.
Local rangers work with neighboring communities to maintain traditional conservation methods while protecting the diverse wildlife populations within the reserve.
The reserve offers guided walks through woodland areas and around Lake Kazuni, with the dry season from July to October providing optimal wildlife viewing conditions.
Lake Kazuni sustains large populations of hippopotamuses, while 341 bird species inhabit the reserve, including the white-winged starling and pearl-spotted owl.
