Farm Namtib Biosphere Reserve
The Jewel of the Tiras Mountains



hier bekommen Sie den deutschen Text

Farm Namtib is a privately owned biosphere reserve covering an area of 16400 hectares at the edge of the Namib Desert in the Tiras Mountains. Farming and human activities are adapted to the prevailing arid climate of southern Namibia to minimize the impact on the ecological system. The fascinating landscape of the farm offers an abundance of breathtaking views and hosts a wealth of fauna and flora. Oryx, Springbock, Kudu as well as Klippspringer and the scarce Steenbock inhabit the territory. Numerous Acacia grow in the dry riverbeds and quiver trees line the mountains. A true scarcity in an area bordering the desert are the fountains with their biotopes found in the rugged gorges of the mountains on the farm. The untouched mountains offer hiking ranging from easy to extreme for the discerning hiker. The mountains rise steep from the plains and their peaks reach high into the steelblue sky. (1060m - 1976m above sea level).

Namtib Desert Lodge offers accommodation in farmstyle bungalows each with an own bathroom. The owners, Family Theile, attend personally to the guests and provide interesting information about life at the edge of the Namib Desert.

Should you prefer the outdoors and like camping the we offer you our campsite Little Hunter’s Rest, equipped with cooking facilities and ablutions. The area surrounding the camp site invites you to explore its wilderness and absorb the vastness of the desert.

Farm Namtib is situated on one of the most scenic routes in southern Namibia. The farm is ideally located between Fish River Canyon and Sossusvlei/Sesriem or Lüderitzbucht and Sossusvlei/Sesriem.
