The challenge

  • Trek one of the world’s oldest deserts and fundraise for Grief Encounter
  • Led by acclaimed ex-SAS soldier and broadcaster Ken Hames
  • Scale sand dunes, trek through the desert and across mountain outcrops
  • Experience the vast array of Namib Desert wildlife in their natural habitat
  • Sleep under the desert sky strewn with glimmering stars

Welcome to Namibia, formerly known as SW Africa! This terrain is semi desert ‘bushveld’, except for the Namib Desert, which is true sand dune, shaped by the wind, the oldest desert on earth!  The northern regions have a great variety of landscapes, including spectacular ‘Etendekas’ or ‘flat topped’ mountains split by deep gorges and dry river lines also home to a variety of wild animals.

You will spend 8 days trekking through this changing landscape from Kamanjab to the Hoarisib Gorge experiencing life in the bush and sleeping out under the stars.

Led by Ken Hames who has completed major expeditions across Namibia along with his TV work.
