🌳 The Story of Manyame Leisure Centre – Where Nature, History & Adventure Meet 🌳
Between the calm waters of Prince Edward Dam and the bustling Seke Road, directly opposite St. Mary’s Police Station in Chitungwiza, lies a breathtaking sanctuary that many call a treasure hidden in plain sight. This is Manyame Leisure Centre—a natural resort where every path tells a story and every moment becomes a memory.
Spanning a generous 75 acres of untouched natural land, Manyame Leisure Centre is a world of wonder waiting to be explored. The air is filled with the scent of 65 different types of trees, some old enough to have watched generations grow around them. As the sunlight filters through the branches, you can almost hear the whisper of nature inviting you to wander deeper.
And when you do, the magic begins to reveal itself.
Scattered across the landscape are curved stones, shaped beautifully by nature over centuries. Hidden among the trees are Bushman paintings, ancient reminders that this land was once home to early communities whose stories still live through their art. Then there are the remarkable balancing rocks—standing silently but proudly, daring anyone to explain how they remain perfectly poised, defying gravity and time.
These features make the resort not just a place to relax, but a living museum—ideal for educational tours, school trips, and team-building adventures. Students leave inspired, teams leave united, and visitors leave with a deeper appreciation of Zimbabwe’s natural heritage.
But the beauty of Manyame Leisure Centre does not end with exploration—it grows with celebration.
The resort offers the perfect setting for weddings, where couples say “I do” under the shade of majestic trees. It hosts cheerful birthday parties, warm picnics, exciting family gatherings, and countless other activities that bring people together.
