The story

Festival de Chimanimani in Chimanimani

A festival concept tied to the Chimanimani Mountains straddling the Mozambique-Zimbabwe border, home to Mount Binga and protected in part by Mozambique's Chimanimani National Reserve, though no independently confirmed recurring event under this exact name was located.

The Chimanimani Mountains rise along the border shared by Zimbabwe and Mozambique, forming the southern anchor of a range known regionally as the Eastern Highlands or Manica Highlands, a belt of elevated terrain running between the Zambezi and Save rivers.
