Namibia is a vast country. Backpacker hostels
can mainly be found in the major centres such as Windhoek
and Swakopmund. Namibian hostels are of a high standard.
Namibia with its scenic beauty, the rich wildlife,
its interesting history and the friendly people has developed
into an attractive travel destination.
Geography and Climate:
Namibia is one of the most arid regions in Africa. The extensive
sand dunes of the Namib Desert, bare of any vegetation and
up to 300 kilometres wide, stretch along the whole length
of the coast. To the east of this coastal desert belt, a
mountain range strongly fissured and with sparse plant life,
rises up to 2000 meters and more. Further east, the mountain
ranges gradually lower into a vast plateau. Here, the landscape
is characterized by endless 'thornvelds' and open bushland.
People:
Namibia is one of the least densely populated countries
in the world…. 2 inhabitants per square kilometre.
In comparison: there are around 200 inhabitants per square
kilometre in central Europe.
