Spitzkoppe, Namibia

Include in my safari All activities

About this experience

Spitzkoppe’s granite peaks rise abruptly from the flat Namib plains, earning the nickname “Matterhorn of Namibia”. Guided hikes explore the boulders, natural rock arches and hidden valleys at the foot of the peaks.

The area is managed by the local community, and campsites among the rocks make it a memorable place to stay overnight under the stars.
