    Chipota falls

    March 3, 2020 in Zambia ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    My search of Chipendenzi waterfalls ends up in high-definition offroading because these falls exist in my 1:1.000.000 paper map but do not in any of my digital maps. From the farm I try to get there the hard way. The digital maps feature at least a weird network of dirt paths which I follow in roughly the correct direction. I do not succeed in the first run but my intuition is right! After turning back from a dead end I ask in a village for the way and get accompanied by Victor and Fred who let me return into the dead end and show me a side path which I ignored in the beginning. No signs, no nothing and totally overgrown, but at the end of this hidden path we have some waterfalls! But according to them it's not Chipendenzi river but Chipota river, lol. At least OpenStreetMap will show some new map data soon ;-)Read more
