Mutumuna Falls, Waterfall system near Kasama, Zambia
Mutumuna Falls spans a width of several meters, cascading down 20 meters through a series of rocks forming the upper section of Chishimba Falls.
In 1959, the British administration constructed a hydroelectric dam at Mutumuna Falls, initially generating 900,000 watts to supply power to surrounding regions.
The Bemba people consider Mutumuna Falls a sacred site where their spiritual leader makes offerings, maintaining traditional customs through generations.
The waterfall location requires a 40-kilometer drive northwest from Kasama on the Kasama-Mporokoso Road, with parking facilities available for visitors.
The falls integrate modern hydroelectric infrastructure with a 15-megawatt power station while maintaining natural water flow patterns through multiple cascades.
