Chirundu is a town in the Southern Province of Zambia, on the border with Zimbabwe, and the site of the two road bridges that cross the Zambezi River at this point, the Chirundu Bridges. The township on the Zimbabwean side of the river carries the same name. About 21 kilometres west of the town, just south of the road from Chirundu to Kafue near the junction with the road to Siavonga, lies the Chirundu Petrified Forest, an area of fossil trees of Karoo age that is a listed National Monument of Zambia.
