Matetsi is a village in Matabeleland North Province, Zimbabwe, located about 55 km west of Hwange. The village started as a railway siding and took its name from the nearby Matetsi River, named for the blue-green algae locally called “Matetsi” which is found on rocks in the river. Most of the surrounding land is under forest and the Matetsi Safari Area. The nearest airports are Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe), Kasane (Botswana), and Harry Mwaanga Nkumbula (Zambia).
