Guided & Self-guided Drives
We gladly show you the fascinating plant and animal world of the Succulent Karoo on a scenic drive through Gondwana Sperrgebiet Rand Park.
The Succulent Karoo – a colourful carpet of flowers on the vast plains of the southern Namib after the winter rains. Gondwana Sperrgebiet Rand Park near Aus is part of one of the 20 biologically most valuable areas in the world. Three different biomes merge in this 510 km² park, resulting in a unique flora. The nature reserve borders on the Nama Karoo and on the dune-sea of the Namib.
The landscape is characterised by the granite mountains of the Great Escarpment, rock-strewn dry riverbeds and sweeping plains. The park lies on the eastern fringe of the Diamond Restricted Area and 20 km east of the watering trough at Garub where you can watch the Wild Horses of the Namib.
