Zimbabwe is a landlocked country, surrounded by South Africa to the south, Botswana to the west, Zambia to the northwest and Mozambique to the east and northeast. Zimbabwe also meets Namibia to the west at a single point. To the south, Zimbabwe is separated from South Africa by the Limpopo River. The north-western border is defined by the Zambezi River. Zimbabwe's highest peak is Mount Nyangani (formerly Mount Inyangani), at 2,592 m (8,504 ft);[29] it lies within the Nyanga National Park in the east of the country. The lowest point of Zimbabwe is the junction of the Runde and Save rivers 162 m (531 ft). Victoria Falls is a popular tourist destination on the Zambezi. It's hard to absorb a river system as vast as the great Zambezi….from it's source it carves a path stretching two and a half thousand kilometers, creating a natural wonder that is the worlds largest waterfall, Victoria Falls. With a little intervention from man the depths of this mighty waterway fill a reservoir that holds 200 billion tons of water, the world famous Lake Kariba. |
