Waterberg National Park

Back to Namibia Map | View Namibia Overland Tours

The distinguishing feature in the Waterberg National Park is the compressed sandstone plateau. The plateau has a top layer of sandstone which, when it rains, soaks up the surface water and gives rise to some spectacular water features at the foot of the plateau.

The water is not a source which dries up and evaporates quickly, therefore attracting plenty of birdlife and wildlife to the area. The colonies of Cape vultures are regular visitors to the area and are the only surviving colony of this breed. Due to the abundance of water the Waterberg National Park attracts rare and threatened species that include white rhinos, sable and roan antelopes.

There are many hiking circuits around the plateau and the area is a unique destination for travellers interested in spotting rare African wildlife.
