Matobo National Park

The Matobo hills are a granite landscape of balancing boulders and whaleback domes south of Bulawayo, a World Heritage Site for the thousands of San rock paintings in their caves and shelters, some among the finest in Africa. The park holds one of the densest populations of leopard and of Verreaux's eagles in the world, and a fenced section protects black and white rhino that can be tracked on foot with a guide. Cecil Rhodes is buried on the summit of Malindidzimu, the "view of the world". There are no lions or elephants. The lodges and ZimParks chalets sit among the hills, and it is a malaria-low area at altitude.
