Sesriem canyon formed some 2 million years ago as the then mighty Tsauchab River cut its way through the sedimentary rocks creating a gorge with a depth of between 30 and 40m. It is a popular place to visit when traveling to Sossusvlei, one of the top destinations for a safari in Nambia.

It was carved out of sedimentary rock by the Tsachaub River in a process that started over 2 million years ago. The pools at the bottom of this trench are replenished by the rains and still hold water almost year-round today.

The Himba people mainly live in the North-West part of Namibia. Please remember when you visit the tribes to show respect to them and their cultures and views. They are also changing to the environment they live in today, so do not be surprised to see them in modern clothing or occasionally clutching a cell phone! Please also be aware that whilst we endeavour to arrange walks and meetings with the tribes, they choose what and when they wish to do things, which can occasionally be out of our control.
