Sossusvlei —
Sesriem.

Sossusvlei is possibly Namibia's most spectacular and best-known attraction. The dunes in this area are some of the highest in the world, reaching almost 400 meters.

They provide photographic enthusiasts with wonderful images in the beautiful morning and evening light — and Little Sossus Lodge is just 36km from the gate.

"This campsite is only 20kms away from the main gate into Sesriem/Sossusvlei and so much more peaceful and quiet. Beautiful scenery around and if you lucky you get the site with the waterhole in front, which little creatures, and some big, come to drink."
