Nkhotakota Game Reserve is a national game reserve in Malawi. It is located at Nkhotakota.
The reserve is managed by the NGP African Parks since 2015. According to the NGO, its fauna has been almost wiped out, but there is a massive plan to reintroduce or reinforce main species. 500 elephants will be translocated from Liwonde National Park and Majete Game Reserve, two other protected areas of Malawi currently managed by African Parks.
