Three Peaks challenges in Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe's high plateau rises toward a central highveld and mountains in the east. The eastern uplands form a distinctive landscape within a country whose relief is otherwise more broadly elevated and rolling.
The landscapes of Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe's elevated plateau rises into a higher central belt, while mountains occupy the east. These eastern uplands create a distinct regional landscape beside the more broadly rolling high country elsewhere. The overall setting is inland and elevated rather than coastal.
Altitude moderates the tropical climate, with a wetter part of the year contrasting with drier months. The eastern mountains and central highveld occupy different positions within that pattern of relief. Their relationship to the surrounding plateau provides the geographical context for exploring Zimbabwe's higher ground.
