The mist at Victoria Falls is a result of the sheer volume and force of water plunging over the edge. The falls stretch over a width of about 1.7 kilometers (1 mile), and the water drops down a height of around 108 meters (354 feet). This creates an incredible amount of spray and mist that fills the surrounding air.
The mist is so abundant that it forms what is often referred to as the "Smoke that Thunders." The local name for Victoria Falls, "Mosi-oa-Tunya," also translates to "The Smoke that Thunders" in the indigenous Tonga language. This name perfectly captures the essence of the falls, as the mist rises high into the sky, resembling smoke, while the thunderous sound of the cascading water echoes throughout the area.
When visiting Victoria Falls, you can expect to feel the refreshing mist on your skin and see the sunlight reflecting off the tiny droplets, creating rainbows that dance in the air. It's truly a surreal experience, as if you're standing amidst a magical misty wonderland.
The mist also provides a unique microclimate around the falls. The constant spray results in high humidity, which supports the growth of lush vegetation and a diverse range of plant species. This, in turn, attracts various animals and birds, creating a vibrant ecosystem that thrives in the misty environment.
So, whether you're an adventure seeker, a nature lover, or simply looking to immerse yourself in the beauty of nature, the mist at Victoria Falls is sure to captivate your senses and leave you in awe of its sheer magnificence.

What is our weekend like?
We go on roads that lead to... (well weekend the navigation is off, we just drive where the vine leads us) full of mud, water, scratch the vehicle with branches, walk through plants that are taller than our 2mtrs, getting stuck in mud, capturing the sunset, sometimes lightening. Phewwwww that's what we call experiencing Zambia. Wait wait wait thats just the wet season! Slide in and enjoy while you can!
Zambia has everything, waiting to be exposed!
