Create an itinerary including Spitzkoppe
Scamper around magnificent rock formations at Spitzkoppe, a series of granite peaks. Rising out dramatically from a flat, desolate landscape, the highest peak stands at 1,784 m (5,853 ft) above sea level, some 700 m (2,300 ft) from the desert floor below. See rock paintings by Khoi San people, some of which are several hundred years old, and enjoy the sight of dassie rats popping out of the cracks in the rock. This area offers high-grade rock climbs and great safari opportunities, but make sure to bring plenty of water with you. See Spitzkoppe and all Damaraland has to offer by arranging your trip with our Damaraland trip planning website.

  • Beautiful place, if you are into Stargazing and nature while camping at a budget price, Spitzkoppe offers outstanding landscape, incredible sun sets. Camping facilities are excellent and very clean while offering to each camping space plenty of room not to disturb each other. The bio-diversity of the fauna and flora is also extremely interesting. I deeply recommend, this is my second time in Spitzkoppe and already planning a third one!
  • Great for photographers and anyone who enjoys nature, mountains, rocks and more. Stunning setting for watching nightsky.
