Chiremba Balancing Rocks
Large weathered boulders balance above rounded bedrock near Harare.

The story behind the place
The Chiremba Balancing Rocks stand southeast of Harare. Broad, irregular boulders meet at narrower contacts, creating a profile that appears surprising even though the stones remain connected. The formation’s weathered surfaces and uneven outlines distinguish it from a sculpture or masonry structure. Reading the contacts and layers helps reveal the physical form behind the familiar silhouette. The named group is one part of a larger rocky setting at Epworth.
