Filmed towards the end of the Fish River hike, I unfortunately only had 2 batteries & my solar panel hadn't arrived by the time I left. Will redo this hike again in the future & film each day to give a more comprehensive overview of what the full 5 day, Fish River Canyon is like in all it's glory.

Fish River/Visrivier Canyon 2019**

Round trip (Ai-Ais, Fish River Canyon, Quiver Tree Forest, Giants Playground)
The Fish River Canyon is located in the far south of Namibia. It is the largest canyon in Africa. It features a gigantic ravine, about 160 km long, up to 27 km wide and in places almost 550 meters deep. The Fish River is the longest interior river in Namibia. Local legend has it that the snaking canyon was created by the whiplash of a dragon’s tail. It takes you through 1.5 billion years of geological history.
The natural hot-spring oasis is situated at the base of the mountain peaks (extremely arid area) at the southern end of Fish River Canyon. Ai-Ais means 'burning water' in the local Nama dialect, refers to the sulphurous hot springs which are found in this area in 1850 by a nomadic Nama. The thermal water has an average temperature of about 60 °C and rich in sulphur, chloride and fluoride.
Giant’s Playground. it is a geological phenomenon. The giant's playground is a place where huge dolorite boulders seemed to have been place in piles as if giant toddler played lego with them. The unique rock formations were caused by the erosion of underling sedimentary rock sometime around 180 million years ago. The dolorites at the quiver tree forest and giant's playground form part of the bigger sill complex. The dolorites are magma that was pressed up, but cooled off just below the earth's surface. The softer parts of the stone and the top layer of the earht's crust erodated away, which left the dolorites exposed. The dolorites are between 160 and 180 million year old, and in the Keetmanshoop region cover an area of 180 000 km2. Dolortes dykes are usually between 3-10 meters in width and can run from a few hundred metres to more than 20 km in lenght.
The Quiver tree forest is spontaneous. It is an aloe plant which botanical name is aloe dichotoma. Also called Quiver trees because bushmen use its branches to make quivers. The tallest quiver trees are two to three centuries old. These unusual-looking trees can reach heights anywhere between three and nine metres and only bloom once they are between 20 and 30 years old. The Quiver tree is also known for looking like its upside down because the leaves look somewhat similar to roots. This tree has a long history of beliefs that it will bring good luck to anybody that worships a tree and nurtures it. The forest is home to the rock hyraxes living among rocks. The closest living relatives to hyraxes are the modern-day elephants and sirenians.
