Namibia is full of lesser-known spots that rival its famous landmarks:
-
Spitzkoppe – A granite peak rising from the desert, perfect for rock climbing and stargazing.
-
Waterberg Plateau – A lush, red sandstone plateau with hiking trails and rare wildlife.
-
Nkasa Rupara National Park – Often called Namibia’s Okavango, with wetlands and hippo sightings.
-
Quiver Tree Forest – Near Keetmanshoop, this forest of alien-looking trees is a photographic haven.
-
Kolmanskop – A ghost town slowly being swallowed by sand, once a booming diamond mining town.
