Chilojo Cliffs

The Chilojo Cliffs are one of the most prominent natural features of the Gonarezhou National Park. Visible from 50km away, morning and evening light give the cliffs a rich hue and dramatically silhouette the distinctive baobab trees. These trees are the source of the famous “cream of tartar”. These magnificent red sandstone cliffs have been formed through seasons of erosion and overlook the scenic Runde River valley.Composed of oxide-rich sandstone, the cliffs are spectacularly colourful at sunset.
