Month by month

Matobo in July

July is peak winter in the Matobo Hills: almost no rain, the clearest air of the year and the coldest nights.

If you only want the answer

Superb for walking and views if you pack for frost. Eagle chicks are in the nests.

Weather

July averages about 3 mm of rain, with days around 20.5°C and nights about 7.7°C, the coldest of the year. Frost is possible in the valleys.

Eagles

Black eagle chicks are in the nests, fed on hyrax brought in by the adults. The chicks fledge after about twelve weeks.
