The Spitzkoppe in Namibia | Wild camping & hiking

Описание: The Spitzkoppe in Namibia | Wild camping & hiking

I spend 2 nights wild camping at one of Namibia's most beautiful locations, the Spitzkoppe. I pitch my tent in the shadows of the Grosse Spitzkoppen and realise that my 2000 Toyota Hilux has developed starter problems. Regardless I push through and continue to explore the activities on offer.

This includes a swim at the Rock pools, an evening hike up Sunset rock for a time lapse, a guided tour of Little Bushman Paradise and the Golden Snake, and a quick hike to the Rock arch. All of this while wondering if my Toyota Hilux will start on the final morning. Join me Nick from Namibia as I show you the best bits on offer at the beautiful Spitzkoppe.
