Bupenyu Lodge is located above Rapid no. 22 in the Batoka Gorge, along the Zambezi River, between Zimbabwe and Zambia. The most significant attraction in the broader region is undoubtedly the famous Victoria Falls — the world’s largest sheet of falling water and a World Heritage Site. This is one of Africa’s most unforgettable attractions.
Newmark offers guests a total “southern African bucket list experience”, with properties in Cape Town, in proximity to the Kruger National Park, both in South Africa, and Bupenyu Lodge near to the Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe.
The gorge is dramatically beautiful — with awe-inspiring cliffs and unique basalt formations — and holds geological significance. Diverse ecosystems and various wildlife species add to the area’s appeal, which is known to draw visitors from around the globe. Activities such as white-water rafting, bungee jumping and zip lining also attract adventure seekers from near and far.
Batoka Gorge is characterised by a semi-arid subtropical climate, with hot summers (October to March). The rainy season (November to March) brings high humidity levels and occasional thunderstorms. Winters (June to August) are mild to cool, and the dry season (April to October) typically offers clear skies and ideal conditions for outdoor activities.
The average annual temperature in Batoka Gorge typically ranges from 23°C to 35°C.
