The Zambezi River originates in the northwest of Zambia and flows 2700 km to the Pacific Ocean. It also flows past Livingstone before tumbling 100 m into the Batoka Gorge, which marks the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe.
The town of Victoria Falls is located right next to the falls. The falls are called ‘Mosi-oa-Tunya’ or ‘The Smoke that Thunders’ because the mist can rise several hundred metres above the gorge during the wet season, making it visible for miles around and thus a well-known landmark.

The town of Victoria Falls is the ideal place from which to explore the falls. For a small fee, guests can walk along the entire length of the falls on the Zimbabwean side, and marvel at the thundering mass of water.
The falls are rather small in October / November and large parts of the edge are visible. The amount of water flowing over the edge increases as the rains begin, swelling to its full capacity with the onset of the floodwaters in March / April. There is often a lot of mist from April to July, and it’s advisable to protect yourself and your camera with something waterproof.
