How high above the sea level is the source of the river zambezi?

The source of the Zambezi River is located in the Zambia highlands, at an elevation of approximately 1,600 meters (about 5,250 feet) above sea level. This high-altitude region contributes to the river's flow as it descends through various landscapes before reaching the Indian ocean. The river travels over 2,500 kilometers (about 1,600 miles) before emptying into the ocean.
