The Nyanga Trust Museum is next to the Rhodes Nyanga Hotel ( It was Rhode’s old stable block). The Focus in the museum is on the local struggle after 1892 and the life of Cecil John Rhodes.
Frustrated miners had to turn to agriculture so the BSAC sold large tracts of land in this area to settlers, who kept local people on as cheap labour, but a later deal kicked them off altogether, a state of affairs that continued well into the Smith regime.
The hero in the museum is Chief Rekayi Tangwena, who led the struggle for reinstatement, which only came with independence in 1980.

At 2 593 meters above sea level, this is the highest point in Zimbabwe. The car park is located at 2 140 meters above sea level and it is considered as not a difficult hike to the top, but one must be reasonably fit.
Allow two to three hours to the summit where, mist willing, you will have wonderful views. The summit is said to have its own resident spirit, which is why you won’t find many local people up there. It is considered dangerous to point at the sacred mountain.
