Zongororo Mountain Lodge The word ‘Zongororo’ means millipede in the local dialect, Shona. Fifteen years later, Zongororo is place of restoration, connection, and exploration.

Accommodation, Hiking, Birding, Retreats, Weddings...The Farm strives to be a place of Spiritual Rest, Revival & Restoration, a space where changes can take place, where broken hearts can be healed, captives set free and disciples made. Millipede, in turn, means ‘millions of legs’ which, explains owner Elsa, “teaches us to work together to protect God’s creation and to move steadily towards our go

The Zongororo story started in 2009 in response to a call from God to establish a Christian guest farm and ministry. It is also testament to more than a decade of inspiration, perspiration, determination, guidance, and assistance from above.

We’re celebrating Day with our very own resident donkey, Vlenters.

A true character and part of the Zongororo family, today we celebrate all our furry friends - those still with us and those we’ve said goodbye to.

Vlenters gets his name from the Afrikaans word for “ragged clothes,” a nickname once given to Hennie Venter.

When the two donkeys joined us, we named them Trompie and Vlenters - and just like their namesakes, they didn’t always see eye to eye.

And whilst both Trompie and Hennie have passed on, here at Zongororo we treasure the laughter and the memories we continue to make.

Do you remember Hennie or Trompie? Share your memories with us.
