Itinerary description

|
Show original
Namibia is impressive, it is ideal to get lost on lonely roads. You have to avoid the main roads, there is no space for bicycles and cars circulate very fast.
Be careful with wild animals that are not only found in the interior of Etosha NP.
The route circles the Etosha National Park to reach Oshikango and cross the Skeleton Coast NP. From Oshikango to Torra Bay the road is in very bad condition and from Torra Bay to Swakopmund there is wind against.
After Swakopmund you will cross the incredible Moon landscape and direct towards the capital of Namibia.
From Windhoek to the border with South Africa, the Fish River Canyon is crossed.

ATTENTION: The circulation of bicycles in the Skeleton Coast NP is prohibited.
