The Chilojo Cliffs

The Chilojo Cliffs in Gonarezhou National Park just take your breath away.

The cliffs rise 558 feet from the south bank of the Runde River.

Due to visiting this corner of Zimbabwe after the rainy season ended, there are only hints of the Runde River.

The cliffs are red sandstone and just stunning.

The trip to visit Chilo Gorge Safari Lodge was well worth it for these cliffs alone!

Gonarezhou National Park is part of the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park

(with South Africa's Kruger and Mozambique's Gaza).

A River Runs Through Gonarezhou

Gonarezhou National Park in Zimbabwe is dominated by the lovely Save River.

Aren't these clouds beautiful?  Zimbabwe continues to astound me with some of the most wonderful clouds I've ever seen.

The remnants of the rainy season can be seen in the river bed.

Each day we were in Gonarezhou, we could visibly see the water lowering as we entered the dry season.


Oh, be still my heart, how I love Zimbabwe's clouds.
