Sossusvlei, Namibia

Planning a Namibia holiday

At Sossusvlei, some of the highest dunes on earth glow red at sunrise above Dead Vlei, where dark camel-thorn trees have stood on a white clay pan for centuries. On the coast, Swakopmund looks out over the cold Atlantic, and in the north Etosha's waterholes draw elephant, rhino and lion. It is one of Africa's great self-drive or private-guided journeys.
