Also in Mashonaland, NE of Harare, this is a very deep cave, which has the advantage that the paintings – rock paintings in vivid colours of the San people, more commonly known as Bushmen – have been well protected against the elements. When I visited in 1991, it was a poor road, and then a steep, half-an-hour climb to the cave, from where you have not only the paintings, but also a beautiful view across the country side.
