Moon Landscape of Namib Naukluft national park, as seen in the afternoon 1
A large barren area in Namib Naukluft national park that has an otherworldly landscape, with many comparing it to that of the moon.

It was originally a hilly area, that was shaped through years of erosion, as rainwater drained into the Swakop river nearby.

Today, it hosts little vegetation such as lichens and Welwitschia.

What to do thereSight seeing, camping, game drives, game viewing, hiking, picnics, or visit the attractions nearby or on it.

Best time to visitAny time of the year.

Location of Moon landscapeIn the Namib desert, near the northern border of Namib Naukluft National Park.
