Ngoma Kurira (”Drums Sounding”) is the name of a mountain near Domboshawa, just outside of Harare in Zimbabwe. It is believed that Shona ancestors protect the place. The Mountain is administered by the National Museums and Monuments of Zimbabwe who charge a small fee for you to either climb or drive to the beacon on the top.

The climb up from the small office at the base of the mountain to the beacon will take you from 90 minutes to 3 hours dependent on your fitness. If you opt to climb you will find magnificent examples of San Art rock paintings. The routes are clearly marked.

A drive up in a 4x4 vehicle will take an hour. If driving proceed further along the road to the turn off where you turn left and start the climb up the hill. There are normally school children around who are very willing to run alongside your vehicle and show the way.

For the more adventurous 4x4 drivers you will note a number of arrows painted on the rocks which will take to the beacon. If you can touch the beacon with your bumper you will have “kissed the beacon”. It would be good to see pictures of you kissing the beacon!

Along with the spectacular views enjoy the aloes, lichen and moss that cover the rocks. Keep a look out for Klipspringer buck, rock rabbits and the colourful lizards that sun themselves on the rocks. As this is a traditional spiritual mountain you may find artifacts left to appease the spirits. Please respect them and leave them be.
