Welcome To Namib Rand Family Hideout
The exceptional surroundings and clarity of the air provide endless
opportunities for photography by day and star-gazing by night. Slow
down, leave the stress and pace of our high-tech world behind you for
a while and relax around an open fire in the silence of the multi-coloured
sunset, punctuated only by the click of barking geckos.
The Hideout is simply yet comfortably equipped for your essential needs,
a solid and safe haven from the sometimes harsh desert conditions. Evidence
of bygone farming days still remains in the old walls, fences and outbuildings,
almost buried by ever-shifting sand dunes.

What To Do at Namib Rand Family Hideout
Here in the vast and ancient Namib Desert, nature still reigns supreme.
You may be comforted to know that a portion of your overnight costs goes
towards the conservation of this unique and fragile environment.
Enjoy the spectacular views over the vast plains and ancient blue mountain
ranges, set out on foot or by 4x4 into the glowing red dunes for a close
encounter with the fascinating variety of Namib Desert fauna and flora.
The kids will love the dune-boarding and endless open spaces or chasing
after beetles and lizards scuttling over the sand dunes. A small water-hole
just 20m from the verandah attracts a myriad of bird life as well as oryx,
springbok, bat-eared fox, porcupines and other wildlife.
