Chamutete is a town in southern Angola. Chamutete is also spelled Techamutete. It lies in Huíla Province.

Transport

[edit]

It is currently terminus for a branch railway from Dongo on the Southern Railway system. In 2007, talks between Angola and Namibia were considering the interlinking of their respective railways with a line passing through Chamutete,[1][2] and Oshikango on the border.[3] The central and northern systems would remain to be linked.
