Horse riding trail in the Kaokoveld of Namibia, Africa.

A 12-DAY SAFARI, WITH A 10 DAY HORSE TRAIL THROUGH THE
KAOKOVELD WILDERNESS OF NAMIBIA. Experience the thrill of the
wilderness under unpolluted skies - seeking out the elusive desert Elephants!

Simply entering this wilderness area of Namibia's Kaokoland, is already an experience. Doing
so on a horse trail, with prospects of encountering a myriad species of wildlife along the way,
or Black Rhinos - the only place on earth where they still roam free - and even the famous, but
elusive, Namibian desert Elephants, is the stuff memories are made of!

Experience and confidence is so high, that a 50% refund of the trail cost is offered, if NO desert
Elephants are encountered along the trail! This safari will start at the International airport of
Namibia, and end there again 12 days later. With the horse trail taking place in a wilderness
area, accommodation is non-existent. Therefore, accommodation during the trail will be entirely
a camping experience, with everything you need provided. (Except for your personal effects!)

ONE VERY IMPORTANT PROVISO APPLIES!
The area where this Horse trail takes place is not simply a wilderness region where anyone can
come and go as they please, entry & use is protected by Government Concession. (Conservation
of Namibia's eco-systems and exploitation of natural resources are enshrined in our Constitution).

Therefore, although the Hospitality Association of Namibia protects their members by a regulation
that requires full payment of reservations 30 days prior to arrival, the official booking of this safari
should ALWAYS be well in advance. This is to enable sufficient time for the necessary application
to Government by the operator, and to secure the concession. (Each entry needs to be individually
applied for and negotiated).

Suntan lotion, walking shoes, headgear and light clothing are recommended for riders on the horse trail.

Although no restrictions are placed on the time of year at which this safari can take place, it is highly recommended that the cooler months be chosen. Even being in this area during the summer months, can be very uncomfortable. Attempting a horse trail, will be taxing on both horse and rider. We recommend the very earliest to be mid-March and no later than mid-October. Anything in between is fine, with May to August being winter - lovely warm days, but could have cold to very cold nights during June/July.

Cameras and sufficient film/memory cards is vital (no shops or stores around), and a small pair of binoculars plus good quality sun shades are recommended.

DAY 1: Meet your host at our International airport and transfer to Windhoek for a quick tour of its sights & sounds before settling into a comfortable B&B.

DAYS 2 - 11: Travel towards the base camp where the 10-day horse trail will start. Full of surprises and excitement - enjoy!

DAY 11: Return to a Game farm on the outskirts of Windhoek to "unwind".

DAY 12: Subject to flight departure time, you may have all morning to enjoy nature walks, or simply laze on pool chairs, viewing the wildlife. Transfer to the airport to arrive in time for your departure flight.

Our emphasis on a minimum of six Guests, is based on the stipulations laid down to obtain the
concession required for the horse trail.
