Tallest Mountains in Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe’s highest elevations are concentrated almost entirely along its eastern border with Mozambique in a region known as the Eastern Highlands. This area consists of three main mountain groups: the Nyanga range in the north, the Bvumba Mountains in the center, and the Chimanimani Mountains in the south. Unlike the arid savannas found across the rest of the country, these highlands feature a cool, wet climate.
