Mt Gorongosa (1862m) is Mozambique’s fourth-highest mountain. Located just outside Gorongosa National Park, it's steeped in local lore and known for its rich plant- and birdlife, as well as its abundance of lovely waterfalls. Due to political unrest in the area in late 2016, it's no longer possible to climb the mountain. Check at Gorongosa National Park HQ for updates.
