Gorongosa

Gorongosa extends from the slopes of Mount Gorongosa to the Urema River floodplain, encompassing miombo woodland, savanna and seasonally inundated grassland in central Mozambique. Mount Gorongosa, rising to 1,863 metres, stands prominently above the surrounding lowlands. Gorongosa National Park is the area’s best-known conservation landscape, centred on Lake Urema and a mosaic of habitats supporting large mammals and abundant birdlife. Wildlife suffered heavily during Mozambique’s 1977–1992 civil war; the park’s subsequent restoration has become an important symbol of ecological recovery. Local communities, farming and forest resources remain closely connected to this changing landscape. View additional webcams nearby to better understand how Gorongosa relates to central Mozambique.
