Zambezi River, Angola
The Zambezi is the fourth longest river in Africa, after the Nile, Congo, and Niger Rivers. It is the longest east flowing river in Africa.
It flows through six countries on its journey from its source in north-western Zambia to the Indian Ocean, an amazing 2 700 km.
This river evokes mystery and excitement with few rivers in the world remaining as pristine or as little explored.
The source of the mighty Zambezi River lies at about 1 500 m (4 900ft) above sea level in the Mwinilunga District, very close to the border where Zambia, Angola and the Congo meet.
