Matopos (or Matobo, Matobos) National Park is one of the most popular National Parks in Zimbabwe. The Park is home of the very rare white rhino and the black eagle. The other attraction are the rock paintings, which can be found almost everywhere in the park. They are believed to be some of the best in Africa.

Matobo (meaning “the bald heads”) National Park is set in a “sea of fascinating rock formations”. The best known and most popular formation is the “Mother and child” (pics). The Park is also home of the grave of Cecil Rhodes, who was buried here.

How to get there?
It used to be a bit easier as Zim was not as struggled as it is today. In nowadays the easiest way of going there is joing an overland trip.
