Moon Landscape and Welwitschia Viewing
The Moon Landscape and Welwitschia are must-see natural attractions near Swakopmund, Namibia. The Moon Landscape, located 20 km east of Swakopmund, is a striking, barren terrain shaped by millions of years of erosion, resembling a lunar surface with rocky outcrops and deep crevices. It’s a surreal environment perfect for exploration and photography.
The ancient Welwitschia plant, endemic to the Namib Desert, is known for its longevity and unique, continuous growth of just two leaves. This “living fossil” thrives in harsh conditions, symbolising resilience. Guided tours offer the chance to explore these extraordinary desert features.
