Chimanimani Mountains

The Chimanimani Mountains are a mountain range that runs along the Zimbabwe-Mozambique border. The mountains are located in the southern part of the Eastern Highlands, also known as the Manica Highlands, a belt of highlands that runs between the Zambezi and Save rivers and runs north and south along the international border.

Monte Binga (2,436 m), Mozambique's highest summit and Zimbabwe's second highest, is part of the Chimanimani Mountains. Forests, savannas, montane grasslands, and heath regions abound in the mountains. Parts of the range are protected by Zimbabwe's Chimanimani National Park and Mozambique's Chimanimani National Reserve. Chimanmani Transfrontier Conservation Area is made up of these two parks and a broader buffer zone.

The Chimanimani Mountains are a historic range of mountains with massive volcanic rock formations. The mountain ranges are beautiful, featuring a series of stunning peaks. Mountains have an important role in Zimbabwean culture. The Chimanimani Mountains are home to the majority of the folklore centers, owing to the fact that the ranges' caves were used as a corridor during Zimbabwe's liberation fight. Rock climbing, hiking, camping, and birding are all popular activities in the highlands.
