Richtersveld National Park
|
|
| |
Impressive rock formations, a profusion of succulents, the 'Halfmense', and profound silence fill the largest proclaimed mountain desert park in southern Africa. Dramatic landscapes with rugged mountain ranges, age-old metamorphosed lava flows and ice-age deposits sweep away inland from the Orange River, where Fish Eagles, Egyptian Geese and Kingfishers enjoy the green riverine vegetation that contrasts so starkly with the desert surrounds. |

Augrabies National Park |
|
| |
The Augrabies Falls National Park is where the Orange River is at its most impressive as it thunders its way through a ravine and into a pool walled by sheer granite, creating the world’s sixth largest waterfall. |

Namaqua National Park |
|
| |
As if by magic a tapestry of brilliant colours unfold enticingly along the winding roads of the Namaqua National Park. Butterflies, birds and long-tongued flies dart around among the flowers, seemingly overwhelmed by the abundance and diversity. Every turn in the road paints an unforgettable picture: valleys filled with Namaqualand daisies and other spring flowers that pulse with sheer energy and joy. Next to some eye-catching succulents, a porcupine and a tall aloe pay witness to a baboon overturning a rock and pouncing on a scorpion. |
