The lip of the Kalambo Falls. Note the underwater ridge in the foreground. This slopes back up river and gives a slight sense of security.

Kalambo Falls from the Tanzania side. In low water it is possible to cross along the low ridge just behind the lip of the falls. Best to be roped and a stout pole helps too. NOT for the faint hearted!
The falls are best viewed from further back along the gorge when the Kalambo river is in full flow.
The gorge below the Kalambo Falls. A minature banana grows down here.

Izi Falls on the Mpona river. This spectacular but little known waterfall lies at the southern end of the western escarpment of Lake Tanganyika. It can be glimpsed from the Fisheries bay round the headland to the left of Mpulungu. It is best accessed from the Old Kambole road. It is a walk of some 6 kms relieved by a refreshing dip in the pool behind the lip of the falls.

The top if Izi Falls. Potenial bathers will be pleased to see that the pool lies a little back from the edge.

The Buningi Pans are two small marshy depression lakes some 12 miles down the Kasama Road. They used to be a venue for duck shooting picinics for the early settlers. Archeological excavations by John and Sheelagh Carlin shows that they were inhabited in prehistoric times.
