This 2 days safari take clients to Spitzkoppe a 3 hour drive to Usakaos from Windhoek. The Spitzkoppe ("Matterhorn of Namibia") is nearly 700 million years old. It is a group of bald granite peaks or bornhardts located between Usakos and Swakopmund in the Namib Desert of Namibia. The highest outcrop rises about 1784 meters (5857 feet) above sea level. The peaks stand out dramatically from the flat surrounding plains. If you are a climber, a geologist, a rock hound, or a star gazer, Spitzkoppe is Eden garden for you.
Clients are transferred from their accommodation and they depart to Spitzkoppe which is in Usakos its approximatly 3 hours drive from Windhoek. Once clients have arrived at Spitzkoppe they set up a camp. Once campsite is done clients star gaze up in the sky.
Client wake up early to a hiking trail around the rocks. The clients can climb up a steep area to the bushmans paradise and afterward a flat walking surface with sand and rock. Clients can do other optional activities such as walking trails and birding.
The rock painting sites at Spitzkoppe contain a number of motives that are closely associated with rain making rituals. In Namibia, the archeological evidence of rain making relates to entire landscapes, such as the Spitzkoppe, rather than to individual painted rock shelters. Afterwards clients are transferred back to Windhoek.
