Moon Valley & Welwitschia Plains

The Moon Valley landscape — so named for its extraterrestrial appearance — is the result of 500 million years of geological erosion. Our expedition traverses this surreal terrain to reach the Welwitschia Plains, home to the Welwitschia mirabilis: a living fossil that can survive for over 2,000 years in one of Earth's harshest environments. Along the way, discover the Swakop River canyon, the intriguing Liebfrauenhöhle cave, and landscapes that have served as stand-ins for other planets in major motion pictures.
