Facilities
Angling Societies
At Chirundu there is only the Zimbabwe Private Angling Club that
have a water edge site, although several clubs/members may have houses
on the hill. They do have a slipway that is usable most of the year round.
Other Venues
Tiger Safari's just up from ZPAC also have a slipway but it is rather
steep so ask for them to help retrieve your boat.
There are one or two other houses along the shoreline that have
their own slipways.
