Rugged. Massive. It is sublime, to experience sunrise in the dunes. But step away from the sunrise crowds, and immediately one senses the weighty responsibility of survival in the Namib Naukluft. The adventure is in that risk, and the awareness of the desert subtlety. Wildlife exposes itself as rustles in the dark and morning tracks. There is much to be learned here.

Wildlife: Not a great diversity of game, or big numbers, but seeing Gemsbok, Ostrich and Sprinbok in stunning desert scenery was a major highlight.
Scenic beauty: Absolutely unique – wonderful mix of dunefields, rocky outcrops and dry riverbeds with massive acacias. The freedom to move between selected campsites on a self-drive safari was great.
Bush vibe: This park had more of a wilderness vibe that a bush vibe.
Birding: Birding around some of the waterholes (e.g. Ganab) was excellent in the mornings – Sand Grouse and very large groups of Ostrich in these areas.

Incredibly unique ecosystem full of endemic lizards etc... Spectacular mountains for walking and beautiful sand dunes. Home to two unparalleled spectacles: the sossusvlei and the deadvlei valleys.

Dunes as far as the eyes can see!
My brief trip was mainly around the Sossusvlei area of Namib Naukluft National Park. The thought of seeing sand dunes may not sound enticing at first but the dunes in Namibia are magical. There’s something alluring about the expanse of the desert - its endless curves of the dunes and the soft sand enveloping my feet. My highlight was the views on the top of the dune aptly named “Big Daddy”. It was well worth the 1 hour clamber to the top in the sweltering desert heat. The surreal landscape of Deadvlei will always leave an indelible image in my mind. Deadvlei is otherworldly and unmissable.
