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.
