Zimbabwe Natural Wonders: Victoria Falls Travel Guide

Victoria Falls is one of the greatest natural wonders of the world, and one of the few attractions that exceeds even the wildest expectations of its visitors. Known as both an adventure centre and romantic getaway, there is an excellent selection of things to see and do in Victoria Falls, from walking to the viewpoints that run the length of the falls to white-water rafting and bungee jumping.

The Victoria Falls lie in between Zambia and Zimbabwe in Southern Africa. The falls are part of two national parks, Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park in Zambia and Victoria Falls National Park in Zimbabwe.

The Victoria Falls are just over 1 mile wide (1.7 km) and 355 feet (108 m) high. During the wet season over 500 million liters (19 million cubic feet) of waterfalls over the edge into the Zambezi River. This incredible amount of water generates a huge amount of spray which shoots 1000 feet into the sky and can be seen 30 miles away, hence the name Mosi-oa-Tunya (Smoke that thunders).

The unique geography of the falls means you can watch them face-on and get to enjoy the full force of the spray, noise and spectacular rainbows that are always present. The best time to view the Victoria Falls is during the rainy season from March to May, when they are at their most impressive. The most popular and optimal time to visit Victoria Falls (from the standpoint of good views and best weather) would be around the July through September time frame.

In the dry seasons the Falls looks an amazing beauty. It's a wonderful sight. You need to see it to really sense its amazing beauty. Te beauty of the Falls especially increases during the full moon. It all looks very romantic when you can see an image of the full moon on the falls.
