Camping Namibia

Park / Reserve: Sossusvlei & Namib-Naukluft

Sossusvlei and the wider Namib-Naukluft National Park are home to the world’s tallest sand dunes and the eerie, sun-bleached camelthorn trees of Deadvlei — Namibia’s single most photographed landscape and the reason many visitors come to the country at all. Dune 45 and Big Daddy draw sunrise hikers, while the gateway settlements of Sesriem and Solitaire (famous for its apple pie) offer the closest camping to the park gates, letting campers reach the dunes before the morning heat and the tour-bus crowds. Sesriem Canyon itself is an easy afternoon walk from most campsites in the area.
