    We had a great time visiting Domboshava and enjoyed trekking and watching the sun go down. I really wanted to see the rock paintings in the cave but I was disappointed to see so much graffiti near the paintings that are many thousand of years old.

    The big rock looks at you disdainfully as if daring you to climb it’s back! Yet you cannot resist the regal and majestic look it poses against a typical Africa background! I went with work colleagues and the outing was rewarding both individually and as a team! Loved climbing the steep slopes and reconnecting with my heritage with our knowledgeable tour guide Taurai! For an exciting and fulfilling yet relaxing experience I recommend a visit to the caves.

    It’s great for an outdoor trekking trip. Lots of walking and few decent inclines. Go dressed appropriately. It’s a really good spot to watch the sunset and have a picnic. It’s one of those stops you just have yo go at least one time. Also the rock paintings are really nice.

    Definately a must see in Harare! Very unique spot. Would love to come back during the wet season when all the pools are full of water 😍
