Honde River

[1] It flows from Mount Inyangani on the western edges of Honde Valley where it is joined by several of its major tributaries: the rivers Mupenga, Buu, Mtarazi and Ngarura.

It deposits its waters into the Pungwe River, already in Mozambique, which in turn empties in the Indian Ocean.

Parts of the Honde in the southern Nyanga support lush vegetation, the closest Zimbabwe has to Jungle.

[3] The 500 square kilometres (190 sq mi) of the Honde Valley in Zimbabwe are extensively cultivated, often with gravity fed irrigation channels.

Extensive use is made of the many smaller tributaries feeding into the river in this portion of the Honde Valley.
