Sossusvlei Namibia 🇳🇦 Desert Dunes of the Namib

Sossusvlei Namibia overland road trip. We spent 2 days and some wonderful hours exploring the red dunes of the Namib desert around Sossusvlei and the incredible Deadvlei, with it's 800 year old camelthorn trees.

Entrance is at the Sesriem gate and while there is camping and accommodation available within the park, we opted to stay in a self catering chalet at Desert Quiver Camp, which is around 5km from the entrance gate.

It was a huge privilege to witness water in Sossusvlei, something that only happens very occasionally when good rains inland bring water down the Tsauchab River into the desert, where the massive red dunes of the Namib stop it's flow to the sea.

Sossusvlei is one of Namibia's most popular tourist attractions and while there were a few other visitors, it was uncrowded, unlike our past visits in years gone by, when getting a photo of Deadvlei without people was a challenge. It's well worth going if you can, before the crowds start to make their way there again.

I’m Chris Corbet, an overlanding, adventure & road trip fanatic and video creator with a passion for nature & wildlife conservation. My motto is "live your adventure". After many years in the digital marketing space, I opted out of corporate life and embraced an overland road tripping and adventure lifestyle instead.

I'm currently embarked on a 2 year long mission, Project #60460, to visit 60 of the most unique places in southern and east Africa to mark my 60th year on this, the only planet that we have. The journey is in support of 3 of Africa's big cats: the Lion, Leopard & Cheetah. I'll be sharing the adventure with weekly videos and daily updates in stories, the community tab and shorts.

Join me on this epic overland road trip and help support these incredible predators. You can help keep the journey going by supporting me on Patreon, AND by doing so you'll be contributing to the conservation of these incredible apex predators:   / kangelalife  .
