Bushman Walk
Join an immersive Bushman walk, guided by an experienced Bushman, as you traverse the Namib sand dunes.
This excursion offers a unique opportunity to explore the desert landscape on foot and delve into its intricate details. As you journey through the dunes, you'll interpret the "morning newspaper" left by small critters overnight, gaining insights into their nocturnal activities. You'll also track the fascinating toktokkie beetle, a remarkable creature vital to the ecosystem, and might even be lucky enough to spot the Dancing White Lady spider as it darts across the sand.
This walk provides a fresh perspective on the natural world, shifting from passive observation to active participation. It highlights the tiny, yet significant, life forms often overlooked from the comfort of a vehicle.
It’s possible to combine your bushman walk with the Heart and Home village tour and lunch in the gardens.
"The Bushmen read the desert like a book, every track a story, every breeze a whisper of life."
Duration: 2-3 hours
