Month by month
Matobo in April
April clears the skies while the grass is still long, and the black eagles begin to lay.
If you only want the answer
An easy shoulder month: little rain, mild days, cooler nights and eagles starting to breed.
Weather
About 18 mm of rain falls over roughly 3 days. Days reach about 25.7°C, nights fall to around 14.0°C, and ZimParks recommends warm clothing for evenings from April.
Eagles
Black eagle pairs lay two eggs between April and July, according to the Matobo Conservation Society, and usually raise one chick. Watch the big rock faces for birds carrying nest material or prey.
Walking
Longer walks become comfortable again, though the long grass hides the ground; keep to open rock and paths.
