[3] In 2012 archaeological discoveries were made on the farm Klein Bolayi, east of Mapungubwe National Park, confirming that the Mapungubwe Cultural Landscape extends eastwards or downstream along the Limpopo Valley, and corroborating human habitation in the area for more than 1 500 years.

The dramatic landscapes and contrasts within the GMTFCA make it a very visually and naturally beautiful area of Southern Africa, and adding to this are the cultural heritage sites, that increase the GMTFCA’s potential for drawing large numbers of local and international tourist.

In phase two the area is expected to increase in size with the inclusion of the Central Tuli Farms and the proposed Shashe CCA.

In addition the area roughly extending from the town of Mathathane North to Kobojango and onwards to the Shashe River will also form part of the GMTFCA.

[9] Sentinel Ranch, Nottingham Estate and the Tuli Circle Safari Area make up Zimbabwe's contribution to the GMTFCA.
