Sossusvlei Reviews
More info about Sossusvlei

Sossusvlei is a huge clay pan enclosed in gigantic sand dunes in the heart of the astounding Namib Desert. Rain in this area is a rare event, but after a rainfall the pan fills with water from the Tsauchab River and it is quite a spectacular sight to view the turquoise lake in the middle of the desert. It is a long solitary road to Sossusvlei but the dramatic scenery that awaits visitors is quite worth the trip. Visitors can stay at a number of luxury lodges in the area or opt for more economical accommodation in the tiny village of Solitaire and Sesriem camping grounds which is close to the entrance of Sossusvlei. A small general store, petrol station and a lively bar at the campground is about the only facilities available apart from fancy restaurants... Show more
