➣ The Quiver Tree Forest (Kokerboomwoud in Afrikaans) is a forest and tourist attraction of southern Namibia. It is located about 14 km north-east of Keetmanshoop on the road to Koës, on the Gariganus farm. It comprises about 250 specimens of Aloidendron dichotomum, a species that is also locally known as the quiver tree (Afrikaans: kokerboom) because the San people traditionally used its branches to make quivers. The forest has grown spontaneously; the tallest quiver trees are two to three centuries old. The forest was declared a national monument of Namibia in 1995.

➣ The quiver tree is also known for looking upside down because the "leaves" look somewhat similar to roots. This tree is associated with a long history of folklore, for instance that it will bring good luck to anybody that worships a tree and nurtures it. Since diamonds have been found in Namibia, people say that if one of these trees is dug up, one will find diamonds where it has grown, but since these trees are blessed nobody wants to dig them up.

➣ Near the forest, there is another tourist attraction, spectacular for its unique geology, the Giant's Playground, a vast pile of large dolerite rocks.

➣ The Quiver Tree Forest holds tremendous ecological value within its native landscape. Bright yellow flowers bloom from June to July, when a huge variety of insects, birds, and mammals are drawn to the abundant nectar.

SK:
➣ Les Quiver Tree (Kokerboomwoud v afrikánčine) je les a turistická atrakcia v južnej Namíbii. Nachádza sa približne 14 km severovýchodne od Keetmanshoopu na ceste do Koësu, na farme Gariganus. Obsahuje približne 250 exemplárov Aloidendron dichotomum, druhu, ktorý je miestne známy aj ako strom quiver (afrikánsky: kokerboom), pretože domorodý kmeň San tradične používal jeho vetvy na výrobu toulcov. Les vyrástol spontánne; najvyššie stromy quiver sú staré dve až tri storočia. Les bol v roku 1995 vyhlásený za národnú pamiatku Namíbie.

➣ Strom quiver je tiež známy tým, že vyzerá ako obrátený, pretože jeho „listy“ sa trochu podobajú koreňom. Tento strom je spojený s dlhou históriou folklóru, napríklad s tým, že prinesie šťastie každému, kto ho uctieva a stará sa oň. Keďže v Namíbii boli nájdené diamanty, ľudia hovoria, že ak jeden z týchto stromov vykopú, nájdu diamanty tam, kde rástol, ale keďže sú tieto stromy požehnané, nikto ich nechce vykopávať.

➣ V blízkosti lesa sa nachádza ďalšia turistická atrakcia, ktorá je jedinečná svojou geológiou, Giant's Playground (Obrovské ihrisko), obrovská hromada veľkých doleritových skál.

➣ Les Quiver Tree má obrovskú ekologickú hodnotu v rámci svojej pôvodnej krajiny. Jasnožlté kvety kvitnú od júna do júla, kedy ich bohatý nektár priťahuje obrovské množstvo hmyzu, vtákov a cicavcov.
