Sleeping Pool, Chinhoyi Caves
The deep blue pool at the foot of the Chinhoyi Caves sinkhole, inside a ZimParks recreational park. Diving is a booked park activity and must be done with a Zimbabwe-registered club or centre.
The Sleeping Pool lies at the foot of the sinkhole in Chinhoyi Caves Recreational Park. Published figures for the drop from the rim to the water vary from about 20 m to about 46 m.
The pool is very clear and stays at a steady temperature all year. The main section is described as 80-91 m deep and the full depth is unknown; ZimParks cites a scuba depth of 103 m. Tunnels lead off the pool. Divers book the activity through ZimParks and must go with a Zimbabwe-registered dive club or centre.
