Three Peaks challenges in Mozambique

The landscapes of Mozambique

Mozambique's long Indian Ocean coast is bordered by extensive lowlands, while much higher ground lies inland. Central uplands, northwestern plateaux and western mountains create a pronounced contrast with the country's maritime landscapes.

Monte Binga belongs to the Chimanimani mountains on the western border with Zimbabwe. Mount Namuli occupies a separate northern interior setting, while the Zambezi cuts across lower central country. These separated uplands rise above very different surrounding landscapes, with broad plateaux and river basins between them and the long Indian Ocean coast.
