For the energetic traveller there can be no better way to explore Namibia than on foot. We offer a selection of guided and unguided hiking trails catering for everyone from the hardened hiker to the inexperienced (but enthusiastic) couch potato. Most of the longer unguided hikes require a minimum of three participants and at present there is no system in place to pair single travellers up with other groups - so if there are less than three people in your part you will pretty much have to join a guided hike.
Apart from the hikes listed below we are also able to custom make hiking trails for groups of any size please email us if you would like a custom made hiking experience or have any questions about hiking in Namibia. We've compiled a list of hiking equipment and other information which may be helpful in planning your hike.
