Traveling from central Europe to the northernmost point on the continent that can be reached by vehicle is a LONG journey – 3.642.9km. One way. Back home, the ODOmeter showed a whooping 8.826km travelled. It took me 10 days to get there. Here are some impressions of arguably one of the most beautiful motorcycle journeys in northern europe.
“Why do you want to visit Namibia – there is only stones and sand.” That’s what one of my best friends told me once. I got curious, and now have lost track how many times I have visited this beautiful country – on my own to explore it, and as a tour guide for Leica Camera School. True, the beauty doesn’t expose itself at first sight. So, here are some places I highly recommend visiting and that I keep coming back to.
Sand – and then some more
Quiver Tree Forest
The Quiver Tree Forest near xxx is surely one of the most photographed areas in Namibia. Use the campground nearby and enjoy beautiful sunrise and sunsets. The colours look unreal and heavily processed – but they are not.
Giants Playground
Just a few minutes away you’ll find another fascinating area, called “Giants Playground”.
When exploring the area, make sure to stay close to the (sparsely) marked path – you may get lost.
