DAMARALAND
Damaraland General Information :: Damaraland Attractions :: Damaraland Accommodation :: Damaraland Map
 

Damaraland is where you will find Namibia's wildlife; that typical African safari with teeming plains herds, fearful predators, noble giants and an underworld of fascinating plants, insects, birds, reptiles and mammals.

Southern Damaraland, from Swakopmund up to the Huab River, has many geological and historical attractions and is a popular region for rugged off-road camping expeditions. The land rises slowly up towards the great escarpment and volcano-induced peaks break up the endless plains.

Northern Damaraland up to the Hoanib River has the greatest concentration of game. The terrain rumples into grassy hills dotted with mopane and acacia trees as you travel north-east over the plateau towards Etosha National Park.

The area is divided into several enormous private game reserves, known as concessions, that support most species of Namibia's large game and provide some of the best birding and wildlife experiences in the country - and southern Africa for that matter.

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Fascinating geological attractions
  • Ancient rock art and archaeological sites
  • Wildlife safaris and exceptional birdwatching
  • Luxurious lodges offering guided game viewing and birding excursions
  • Rugged terrain, rocky mountains and more space than you could ever need
