You step onto a damp path and the world rearranges: a distant rumble becomes a steady drum, spray cools the air, and rainbows arc through a column of mist that seems to breathe. A local guide falls into step, pointing out viewpoints as the Zambezi River hurtles toward the basalt lip where water lashes down into a sheer gorge.
