Twyfelfontein - Outjo - Etosha

We depart after breakfast for Outjo via the Petrified Forest. The name is a bit misleading as it is not exactly a forest, which turned to stone, but rather an accumulation of enormous fossilized tree trunks about 280 million years old. Scientists discovered that these trunks haven’t actually grown in today’s Namibia but were washed down a river during ancient times carrying them to where they lie today.

Stop for refueling and replenishments in Outjo before heading to our next destination, Etosha.

Enjoy a late afternoon game drive in our tour vehicle exploring a waterhole and area around the edge of the pan. Spend the rest of the evening observing the nocturnal activities taking place at the campsite’s floodlit waterhole.

Etosha

Enjoy an early breakfast whilst catching the sunrise over Etosha. Today we can choose to either park in the shade and keep watch over a waterhole to see what wildlife emerges or explore the Park’s excellent road network for game viewing. This is our last full day of the trip. Bird life is exceptional with 325 identified species.

The animal numbers which live around the pan approximate to 30,000 blue wildebeest, 25,000 springboks, 23,000 zebras, 5,000 kudus, 3,000 hartebeest, 2,600 eland, 3,000 oryx, 450 giraffes, 2,000 elephants, 260 lions, 200 Black Rhinos and numerous other smaller creatures. Enjoy another of our delicious dinners followed by more nocturnal wildlife viewing at the campsite’s floodlit waterhole.
