and the endeavour is to leave no trace that you
were ever there when you depart.
Overnighting takes place on the banks of
the river, more often than not in the open
air. Lying under the incredible night sky of
Southern Namibia is something you cannot

experience it for yourself.
The fauna and flora inside the canyon is
unique and it is only the hikers that will ever
experience the inside of this incredible canyon.
For five or six days, the vastness, intense
stillness and beauty of the canyon slowly seeps
into your soul, so that when the welcoming
bell rings for you at the end of the hike at
Ais-Ais, you are a changed person and will
find yourself yearning back for this experience
for years to come …”
