Matobo Hills
World Heritage
Zimbabwe
🎧 Listen to Introduction
The area displays a number of unique rock formations that tower above the granite shield that covers much of Zimbabwe. These large stones provide a wealth of natural shelter and have been associated with human habitation from the Early Stone Age through to the Early Historic period, and intermittently since. It also features an outstanding series of rock paintings. The Matobo Hills remain a focal point for local communities, who still use shrines and sacred sites that are closely linked to traditional, social and economic activities.
