Namibia
From Windhoek to Sossusvlei
Sossusvlei and its surroundings are a must-see at least once in your life. The drive there gave us a perfect taste of what the coming week had in store: endless gravel roads. You’ll drive 190 km straight before needing to turn. But the landscape you pass through feels surreal.
A day on the road
We drove about 7 hours toward our first stop. Along the way, we already caught glimpses of wildlife: ostriches, oryxes, and baboons. And the scenery was absolutely stunning!
Sunset in the oldest desert in the world
The Sossusvlei is the oldest desert in the world and very famous. Everywhere you look, you’ll see the tallest dunes you can climb. It's great to drive through during golden hour!
Set up camp at Sesriem Camp
Inside the park, you'll find two places to stay, one of which is Sesriem Camp. This camp provides you a designated camping spot among camel thorn trees, giving you some shade during your stay. Amenities include a restaurant, a bar, and a small shop for beverages. Each site is equipped with a barbecue area, power outlets, and a nice swimming pool to unwind in.
