Namibia

Namibia is a huge country of vast open plains and expansive blue skies. Along its western coast lies the beautiful but unforgiving Namib Desert. Its towering sand dunes, savage canyons, scorching deserts and twisting waterways are unmatched in Africa. Here you can join one of the most challenging rides in the world - there is probably nowhere else on earth you can ride so fast or for so long!

The Fish River Canyon Trail crosses over three private parks: Fish River Canyon Park, Gondwana Park and Aussenkehr Park, altogether covering an area of about 220,000 hectare (2,200 sq km). These Parks fall within the Nama Karoo Desert biome and are on the fringe of the transitional area between Nama Karoo and Succulent Karoo, the Orange River basin at Aussenkehr being the most arid part of the Nama Karoo biome. Aussenkehr Park is also home to a small Namib Feral Horse population, descended from seventeen horses that were relocated during the 1992 drought from the original wild horse population at Garub in the Namib Desert
