Rovos Rail

Overview

  • Your 4-5 day and 1,400km Victoria Falls journey starts with the train’s departure from Rovos Rail Station in Pretoria, South Africa. Travel north through Warmbaths (Bela-Bela), so named for its mineral waters, and Nylstroom, christened by the Voortrekkers as the source of the Nile River.
  • Pass the edge of the escarpment and cross the Tropic of Capricorn towards Bulawayo, capital of Matabeleland and industrial capital of Zimbabwe. Travel along one of the world’s longest stretches of straight railway line – 114km – before traversing Hwange National Park, a rich and diverse wildlife sanctuary where a game drive excursion is enjoyed.
  • Arrive into Victoria Falls Town on the mighty Zambezi River where this incredible rail journey ends. We strongly recommend spending a couple of days in and around Vic Falls to enjoy some of the many activities and experiences available.
  • This trip can also be done in reverse.
