The guest and our guide slowly walk up to the top of Elim dune with the explanation of the area. After sunset they walk back to the campsite with the rest, for Bushmen stories.

TRANSFERS TO LODGES
Transfers between Sesriem and surrounding lodges up to 120km
- Witberg Hike
This is the most important part of the concession we are waiting for. We have already received several requests, but unfortunately we are unable to confirm this hike at the moment. Should your clients be interested, we can alternatively offer them a full day hike into the dunes. Should the concession be granted before your guests arrive, we can change the booking to the overnight hike if the guests should still be interested.
The hike will be a two-nights/three day hike to Witberg all year round. Starting time would be afternoon and the walking distance would be 20 - 25 km with a minimum of two and maximum of 12 persons.
