Video Details
This adventure takes place in Namibia and starts out from the capital Windhoek. In this episode Ben and I are going to show you how to explore Namibia independently. We start out from the Urban Camp, A campsite within the city limits.
From Windhoek, we head west towards the coast. There are multiple ways to get to the coast. The most obvious is a paved highway with a lane in each direction. But we opted for a dirt road. In fact, most of Namibia's roads are dirt.
Gamsbert Pass
We go down to Naukluft Park. Desert country but it's not all sand dunes as most people think there are vast plains, valleys and mountains and all kinds of landscapes, but all of them have one thing in common, they're dry.
Ben was looking for routes down to a riverbed.
Giant rock formations in the middle of the desert. Home to flies and strange plants. In the distance I spot desert zebra.
Later on we spotted horses in the distance. And finally we spot the red dunes which indicate the river nearby.
Even though the riverbeds are dry, the green areas provide food for the elephants. Where they drink? I don't know.
It's getting late in the day so it's time for us to find a place to camp.
We're air camping. Which means we camp wherever we want.
We're packing up to go. Ben has discovered that we have a diesel leak. He claims it's only a few drops. Time will tell.
Once we start driving, Ben smells diesel fuel. It turns out that the leak is a big issue. We head to town to have the car repaired.
Wildlife!
Ben likes to eat lunch and open spaces near the sand dunes.
He's quite organized when it comes to mealtimes. I like a little calcium shell. I don't have to take vitamins in the morning. That would be a six egg omelette?
Ben detailing the car.
He noticed some bird droppings on the car, so he wants to open up a detailing business on this spot it seems.
Time to get back on the main road and head to town. But before we reach Swakopmund, Ben discovers a playground for boys.
The route from here is either along the beach or on a paved road.
Swakopmund is a traditional German town displaced from Germany and located in the deserts of Namibia.
We spent the night in Swakopmund in order to have the fuel leak repaired the next day.

Namib Naukluft (Namibia) Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Namib Naukluft in Namibia.
The arid landscape of the Namib Naukluft Park in the heart of Namibia seems to be endless and it is the fourth largest nature reserve in the world. In the northern region, between the river valleys of the Swakop and Kuiseb, vast fields of scree cover the majority of this fifty thousand square kilometre conservation area. The remote world of stone and rock seems so strange and unreal that one of the valleys in this region is called Moon Valley.Further into the Namib Desert and the colours of the surrounding landscape grow more intense. It is as though both earth and sky are competing against each other to see who shines brightest.The majestic and world famous blazing red dunes of Sossusvlei tower more than three hundred metres over the landscape. In this extremely hot, arid and treacherous ocean of sand even the trees seem to have given up their struggle for survival. Most of the waterholes have dried out and now this region's wildlife must prepare for yet another period of interminable draught.At the end of the day the fiery sky seems to emulate the warm red colours of the mighty sand dunes and amid the beautiful scenery the magnificent world of the Namib Naukluft Park gradually merges with the intense glow of sunset.

Kuiseb Canyon
During a recent trip to Namibia, we were fortunate enough to take a flight over the Kuiseb Canyon and Namib Naukluft National Park. It was incredible seeing that much life in such a harsh environment.

About This Episode:
The Namib Desert is often referred to as the world's oldest desert and has been in existence for some 43 million years, remaining unchanged in its present form for the last 2 million years. The Namib is an immense expanse of relentlessly moving gravel plains and dunes of all shapes and sizes that stretch along the entire coastline. The most widespread and dominant type of desert sand dune are linear dunes, with crescent shaped dunes common along the coast and clusters of star dunes, such as the towering horseshoe of dunes at Sossusvlei, found in the eastern reaches of the sand sea.
It comes as no surprise therefore to discover that the entire western section of Namibia is comprised of the Namib, which spreads beyond the borders of Namibia and flows into southern Angola and the northern Cape Province of South Africa. With ephemeral rivers flowing unexpectedly across an ancient landscape, its dunes, plains, rivers and a foggy coast have all become vital components to support an outstanding and fascinating array of bizarre desert flora and fauna.
Evidence of humans living in the Namib through time extends back to the early stone age era. But perhaps the most documented of mankind's existence can still be seen today in the many rock paintings, stone circles, tools and pottery that have been discovered over the centuries. The most famous rock paintings are at Brandberg and Twyfelfontein. The Topnaar are a well-known clan of long term residents of the Namib. More famous for living in the Namib-Naukluft Park, there are at least a dozen villages scattered along the lower Kuiseb River today.
A section of the central Namib Desert incorporates the Namib Naukluft Park, the largest park in Namibia and the 3rd largest on the African continent. The present day park is a combination of the Namib Desert Park and the Naukluft Mountain Zebra Park as well as sections of the Diamond Area. The combined area is just under 50,000km², from Luderitz to the Swakop River some 400kms. Its main attractions are Sossusvlei, Sandwich Harbour and the Naukluft hiking and four wheel drive trails.

Most of the waterholes have dried out and now this region’s wildlife must prepare for yet another period of interminable draught. The impressive yet strangely formed Kokerboom, or Quiver Tree, is in reality not a tree at all but a high growing variety of the aloe plant. The name of the plant comes from the bushmen who made quivers for their arrows from its large branches. The Kokerboom, acacias and various low-growing varieties of bush make up the characteristic vegetation of the region. At the end of the day the fiery sky seems to emulate the warm red colours of the mighty sand dunes and amid the beautiful scenery the magnificent world of the Namib Naukluft Park gradually merges with the intense glow of sunset.
