Activities at Agama River Camp
- Sossusvlei: a Namibian icon Namibia's highest sand dune is to be found at Sossusvlei. Whether or not it is the tallest in the world is a matter of some dispute - how do you measure the height of constantly moving sand? Nevertheless the stunning red dunes stretching to the horizon are an iconic image of Namibia. Not to be missed.
While there, don't forget to visit Deadvlei, a white clay pan between the enormous red dunes, where dead trees, up to 900 years old, starkly and stubbornly reach towards the vivid blue sky - a truly remarkable natural sculpture. Don't forget your camera!
Driving time: approximately 45 minutes to the main gateway.
An early start is strongly recommended.
- Namib Naukluft Park: one of Namibia's most beautiful regions
Walkers: self-guided trails in the nearby Naukluft mountain foothills.
Hikers will enjoy the more adventurous trails starting from Naukluft itself:-
- The Olive Trail (10 km) takes you to the top of the plateau and offers
spectacular views of black eagle nests on vertical red cliffs. - The Waterkloof Trail (17 km) reveals miraculously cold mountain
streams and crystal clear pools - all in apparently waterless terrain. - There are more ambitious 4-8 day hikes (up to 120 km), with camping
overnight, for groups of 3-12 people. Note that these involve strict
regulations and controls, to maximise your safety in the wilderness.
