Sport & Activities
Northwest of Usakos, rising out of the Namib, is the 2000m (6562ft) Spitzkoppe where there is good mountaineering. Some of the coastal and river areas provide good opportunities for fishing, especially in the waters of the northern Caprivi strip. There are several hiking trails in the Fish River Canyon, the Waterberg Plateau Park, the Naukluft Mountains and the Ugab River. Sandgliding, a pastime popular amongst local people, is available in desert areas. Balloon safaris are organised by some tour operators. There are excellent opportunities for birdwatching. Namibia’s flat terrain and vast open spaces provide good off-road cycling.
