Etosha National Park:
Etosha National Park covers 22,270 km², of which approximately 5,000 km² is made up of saline
depressions or ‘pans’. The largest of these pans, the Etosha Pan, can be classified as a saline desert
in its own right. The Etosha Pan lies in the Owambo Basin, on the north-western edge of the Namibian
Kalahari Desert. Until three million years ago it formed part of huge, shallow lake that was reduced to a
complex of salt pans when the major river that fed it, the Kunene, changed course and began to flow to
the Atlantic instead. If the lake existed today, it would be the third largest in the world. Etosha is the
largest of the pans at 4,760 km² in extent. It is nowadays filled with water only when sufficient rain falls
to the north in Angola, inducing floods to flow southward along the Cuvelai drainage system. The Park
consists of grassland, woodland and savannah. Game-viewing centers around the numerous springs
and waterholes where several different species can often be seen at one time. The Park boasts some
114 mammal and over 340 bird species. Wildlife that one might see includes elephant, lion, giraffe, blue
wildebeest, eland, kudu, gemsbok (oryx), zebra, rhino, cheetah, leopard, hyena, honey badger and
warthog, as well as the endemic black faced impala.

Twyfelfontein:
Strewn over a hillside amongst flat-topped mountains of red sandstone, Twyfelfontein’s boulders and
slabs of red sandstone hold some 2,500 prehistoric engravings that depict wildlife, animal spoor and
abstract motifs. It is perhaps the largest and finest collection of petroglyphs in Africa. The engravings
show animals such as elephant, giraffe, kudu, lion, rhinoceros, springbok, zebra and ostrich that once
used to drink from a fountain at the bottom of the hill. In some cases, footprints were engraved instead
of hooves or paws. The abstract motifs feature mainly circles. Stone tools and other artefacts found at
Twyfelfontein suggest that hunter-gatherers occupied the site over a period of perhaps 7,000 years.
These days a local guide accompanies visitors to showcase the rock art. The engravings lie along two
circular routes, one an hour’s climb and the other 40 minutes longer. Twyfelfontein is one of Namibia’s
key National Monuments and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

utilizing natural stone, carefully selected paint colours, and thatched roofs.

Sossusvlei:
This most frequently visited section of the massive 50,000 km² Namib Naukluft National Park has
become known as Sossusvlei, famous for its towering apricot coloured sand dunes which can be
reached by following the Tsauchab River valley. Sossusvlei itself is actually a clay pan set amidst these
star shaped dunes which stand up to 300 meters above the surrounding plains, ranking them among
the tallest dunes on earth. The deathly white clay pan contrasts against the orange sands and forms
the endpoint of the ephemeral Tsauchab River, within the interior of the Great Sand Sea. The river
course rises south of the Naukluft Mountains in the Great Escarpment. It penetrates the sand sea for
some 55 km before it finally peters out at Sossusvlei, about the same distance from the Atlantic Ocean.
Until the encroaching dunes blocked its course around 60,000 years ago, the Tsauchab River once
reached the sea; as ephemeral rivers still do in the northern half of the Namib.

Sand-locked pans to the west show where the river previously flowed to before dunes shifted its
endpoint to where it currently gathers at Sossusvlei. Roughly once a decade rainfall over the catchment
area is sufficient to bring the river down in flood and fill the pan. On such occasions the mirror images
of dunes and camel thorn trees around the pan are reflected in the water. Sossusvlei is the biggest of
four pans in the vicinity. Another, famous for its gnarled and ghostly camel thorn trees, is Deadvlei which can be reached on foot over 1 km of sand. Deadvlei’s striking camel thorn trees, dead for want of water, still stand erect as they once grew. They survived until about 900 years ago when the sand sea finally blocked the river from occasionally flooding the pan.
