Chitengo

Chitengo is a tiny settlement set at the heart of the breathtaking Gongorosa National Park in Mozambique. The untamed grassy savannah, lush green wetlands fringed with palms, and wild, towering mountains provide the perfect setting for hiking, mountain biking, climbing and birdwatching. Bathe in waterfalls, explore fever tree forests, and photograph jaw-dropping gorges. Chitengo is home to an abundance of wildlife: look out for lions, hyenas, elephants, zebras, spotted eagle owls, and a variety of spectacular butterfly species. Did you know? In the 1960s, the area was a popular holiday destination for Hollywood stars.
