짐바브웨 주변 최고의 가족 하이킹 & 워킹 코스

Without a doubt, the helicopter flights over Victoria Falls were a must for me. They are spectacular; the spray alone can be seen for miles. From a helicopter, you have an impressive panoramic view of this entire natural wonder. The falls border Zambia and Zimbabwe. The Victoria Falls are fed by the Zambezi River, with a maximum water flow of up to 10,000 m³ per second during the rainy season🌧️👈!!! The height is approximately 108 meters. The total width is approximately 1.7 km. Victoria Falls is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World and is considered one of the most impressive waterfalls in the world. The falls have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1989. In sunshine, rainbows often form, so no camera can stay still until the falls are completely in the frame...😁at least mine was 😊

Victoria Falls, also known as Mosi-oa-Tunya ("The Smoke that Thunders"), is one of the most spectacular natural wonders of the world. Located on the Zambezi River, it forms the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe. The falls are neither the highest nor the widest in the world, but their combined width of 1,708 meters (5,604 feet) and height of 108 meters (354 feet) make them the largest single sheet of falling water, earning them the classification of the largest waterfall in the world. The immense volume of water cascading over the basalt cliffs creates a thunderous roar and a mist that can be seen from miles away, sustaining a lush rainforest ecosystem along the gorge. The Zimbabwean side of Victoria Falls offers numerous vantage points providing breathtaking panoramic views of the Main Falls, Devil's Cataract, and the Boiling Pot where the river churns below. The adjacent Victoria Falls National Park protects a variety of wildlife, including elephants, buffalo, and various antelope species. The town of Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe serves as a major tourism hub, offering a wide range of activities such as guided tours, bungee jumping from the Victoria Falls Bridge, white-water rafting in the Zambezi River, scenic helicopter flights, and wildlife safaris. The area is renowned for its stunning natural beauty and the exhilarating experiences it offers to visitors from around the globe.

Zambia has a closer relationship with Livingstone and would also like to adopt his status from the other side.

From here you have a great view down to the Boiling Point and the Victoria Falls Bridge. You can also watch the abseilers on the Zimbabwe side.

In addition to the steam train, there is also the Bamba Tram, which goes to the middle of the Victoria Falls Bridge. It also departs from Victoria Falls Station. The tram has been beautifully restored and offers a completely different open-air feeling than the steam train. More information here: https://bambavictoriafalls.com/

The locomotive, built in 1953 by Beyer Peacock & Co, was used for "steam trains" over the Victoria Falls Bridge until a few years ago. It is currently on a siding, parts are missing and it is more than doubtful whether it will ever be restored and run again.

The terraces of the cafe offer an absolutely impressive view of the Zambezi loop up to the Victoria Falls Bridge. I also loved the rock formations of the gorge with their different colors. From the cafe you can also watch the really brave ones who are either canyoning or doing the slanting "bungee jump" from the edge of the gorge.
