If you are on your way to the Fish Rover Canyon (or back), do yourself an unforgattable favour and visit Katrin at Naute Kristall. If you have some more time, phone in advance for a light "pairing" lunch. She will offer you a wine and liquor tasting with loads of experience w.r.t. the challenges that they face in the Namibian climate. Their products are of excellent quality (Gin as well) and you should invest in a bottle or two... One of your highlights in the southern part of Namibia!

We wanted to see the endemic Quiver trees. There is only a small spot on earth where they occur in such a dense manner: the area around Keetmanshoop in the south of Namibia. There are two spots where you can camp in the middle of the trees. Because of its location and the reviews on TA, we chose the Garas Park Rest Camp. It was July, the night was bitterly cold, but we were equipped accordingly. In the camp there are hot showers in the morning. There is also a common room where everyone can charge their power banks, cell phones etc. overnight. The facilities of the campground are modest, that was honestly declared. Therefore, this review does not judge the number of stars to be awarded, but rather our experience at Garas Park Rest Camp. The water is brought from Keetmanshoop by tanks to the campground. Although, whoever makes it to this remote part of the world is largely self-sustaining anyway. Moreover, this patch of earth is also an example of how creativity and functionality can be integrated by simple means. My favorite is the men's urinal. This review would not be credible if there wasn't something negative. The only thing that comes to mind is its ideal location for a stopover. At night you can hear the trucks on the B1 from afar. Would I camp there again? Yes, in any case. Highly recommended - especially for people who want to take these wonderful and almost unreal pictures of the Quiver trees. These can only be shot at sunset and sunrise. Thanks Marian, gladly again.

Be sure to get there for early morning or sunset, The light is especially good at those times. Try to bring a set of binoculars. There is quite a bit of bird life there as well.
