Chirundu is the border town between Zimbabwe and Zambia, where the wide waters of the Zambezi River are spanned by a road bridge. The town and river are overlooked by a range of hills from which there are spectacular views. Wildlife, including elephants are often seen wandering around in the urban area apparently unconcerned by the presence of people. Chirundu is legendary for elephants drinking from swimming pools, but, with a huge increase in border traffic in recent years, this familiarity has led to conflict and often the destruction of "problem" animals.
Chirundu town itself has little appeal because of the large numbers of haulage trucks queuing up to make the border and bridge crossing. However, along the Zambezi River frontage slightly away from the town, there are some attractive accommodation options and fishing camps which welcome visitors. Sport fishing for the Zambezi's magnificent Tigerfish is excellent here, and access is easy because of proximity to the international highway.
