Spitzkoppe Bushman’s Paradise Rock Art

Bushman’s Paradise, Spitzkoppe, Namibia

About this experience

Hidden among the Spitzkoppe granite, Bushman’s Paradise is a sheltered valley reached by a steep climb with a fixed chain. An overhang here preserves ancient San rock paintings of animals and people.

Community guides explain the art and the area’s history, and the views over the plains from the valley are spectacular.
