Mulanje Guide

  • Grade context: US

A Crag Guide gives an extensive view of all sub areas and climbs at a point in the index. It shows a snapshot of the index heirachy, up to 300 climbs (or areas) on a single web page. It shows selected comments climbers have made on a recently submitted ascent.

At a minor crag level this should be suitable for printing and taking with you on a climbing trip as an adjunct to your guidebook.

where to stay

ethic

Because of issues of theft of hangers on the lower pitches of the slab (usually P1-21, but sometimes up to P4), new developers for new routes must use stainless steel glue-in bolts where there is a high change people can steal them but can continue with bolts and hangers going further from P2.

Mulanje is a world heritage conservation Biome. Bolting is only permissible after careful consideration of the effects the proposed line will have on the sensitive environment there. Climb Malawi, Mountain Club or Malawi and Mulanje Mountain Conservation Trust need to be consulted prior to any bolting expedition (one of the 3 is fine).
