Spitzkoppe Community Camp

Today we packed up and left Goanikontes at 8am and drove just over 100 miles to our next sleepover. Spittzkoppe community camp is set around huge rock mountains in the desert. It is busy with people during the day due to allowing day visitors for hiking and climbing but at night there are only 17 pitches and we got here at 11:30am and got an amazing pitch. They are all totally isolated and off grid só even though we are not alone in the park we are alone camping. Some of the people that had arrived late got some really crap pitches that aren’t secluded and on route to the tourist destinations só we were lucky with our pitch.
After lunch of a pizza each at the restaurant we went for a hike, first to the small bushman’s rock which we have to pay for só we turned around and hiked to the rock pools and rock arch. There is also plenty of bird life here which is great for when we are sitting in camp.Read more
