Let your soles touch the earth and let the earth touch your soul Namaqua Camino
Namaqualand is an arid region in the northwestern part of South Africa, spanning over 1,000 kilometers. Most of the Namaqua Camino walks take you on an inland route to the Atlantic Ocean coastline. With the exception of one, these walks are assisted slack-pack hikes, meaning you carry only a light daypack while your tent and Namaqua Camino bags are safely transported to the next overnight camp. The dates have been carefully chosen for a time of year when the weather is expected to be temperate. However, as we all know, Mother Nature can be unpredictable, and extreme weather—whether very hot, cold, or rainy—may occur during this period. Facilities at the overnight camps are basic, though we do provide hot showers with rationed water. Bucket toilets are available both at the camps and along the route. Water is limited to 5 liters per person per day for personal use, but drinking water is always available at the camps and along the daily stages. To fully enjoy the experience, you should be as physically prepared as possible for the walks. The better prepared you are, the more enjoyable your excursion will be! The Namaqua Camino 5-day - 100 km starts inland at Wallekraal and takes you via Sarrisam Farm to the coastal section of the Namaqua National Park. The time spent along the coast offers spectacular walks with plenty of opportunities to enjoy the scenic, unspoiled Namaqualand coastline. The Wild West Coast 5-day - 100 km route follows a remote and scenic path from Hondeklipbaai to Kleinzee. This journey traverses an almost pristine and unspoiled coastline, along with some inland excursions that few hikers have had the privilege of experiencing until now. The Kamiesberg Adventure 6-day - 106 km is a new route that explores the untouched beauty of the Kamiesberg mountain range. Experience stunning scenery, rich culture, and warm hospitality in this picturesque destination. The Namaqua Camino 10-day - 260 km supported slackpack hike takes you through the distinctive and diverse Namaqualand countryside. This circular walk begins in the quaint seaside village of Hondeklip Bay. The spectacular route guides you across arid plains, through a unique succulent biome, and along the unspoiled Atlantic coast of the Namaqua National Park.
