The Kunene Region, located in the northwest of Namibia, is a vast and challenging wilderness renowned for its stunning landscapes and diverse wildlife. Among the notable species inhabiting this rugged area are the critically endangered desert-adapted elephants, various types of antelopes, black rhinos, giraffes, and zebras. Observing these creatures in their natural habitat is a unique and unforgettable experience due to their exceptional ability to adapt to harsh and dry desert environments.
The Kunene Region is a vast area of over 115 260 square kilometers that shares borders with Angola to the north and the Atlantic Ocean to the west. Visitors can enjoy stunning landscapes, such as towering sand dunes on the Skeleton Coast, rugged highlands in Damaraland, and enormous, arid plains in Kaokoveld. Additionally, the region is home to various indigenous tribes, including the Himba people. These people are famous for their intricate hairstyles and red ochre body paint.
The Kunene Region is a fascinating place that boasts diverse landscapes. Some of the landscapes are harsh and isolated, making it a unique location to see magnificent animals in their natural habitat. The region is home to the highest elephant population that has adapted to living in the desert, and the lions of the Hoanib Valley, which have adapted to life in one of the driest and most hostile environments globally. The Skeleton Coast, a treacherous stretch of shoreline where ships have wrecked for ages, is also located in the area.
