Zimbabwe COMPENDIUM OF STATISTICS 2014 Chapter 1: Physical Characteristics and Climate STATISTICS 3 Physical Characteristics of Zimbabwe Location Zimbabwe is situated in the southern part of the continent of Africa between latitudes 150 30" and 220 30" South of the Equator and between longitudes 250 and 330 10" East of the Greenwich Meridian.

10 Zimbabwe is completely land-locked and it is bordered by Mozambique to the East, South Africa to the South, Botswana to the West and Zambia to the North and North-west. Its total land area is approximately 390 757 square kilometres. Zimbabwe has 10 provinces including Harare and Bulawayo as shown on figure Relief The principal physical feature is the high plateau, the "high veld", that runs from south-west to north-east across the whole country from Plumtree through Gweru and Marondera to Nyanga. This plateau is 650 kilometres long, 80 kilometres wide and lies mostly at an altitude between 1 200 and 1 500 metres above sea level. On each side of this central spine slopping down north-ward to the Zambezi River and southward to the Limpopo River, lies a wider plateau, the "middle veld", with an altitude between 600 and 1 200 metres.
