Equestrian safaris in Namibia

Namibia, a southern African country on the Atlantic coast, is almost four times the size of Great Britain. Despite its size, it is one of the least densely populated countries in Africa, with most of its population living in the north-central region. Its landscapes range from the Namib Desert dunes in the west to the teak forests and waterways of the northeast. The Namib Desert in the west and the Kalahari Desert in the east cover approximately 22% of the country's area. Namibia takes its name from the Namib Desert, a unique geological formation renowned for its wild and captivating landscapes. It is a country of striking beauty, bathed in sunshine and offering a sense of vastness. With its unspoiled landscapes and abundant wildlife, Namibia is ideal for a horseback safari.
The diversity of its landscapes offers ideal conditions for horseback riding, with varied terrain ranging from mountains, bushland, and woodlands to desert plains and dunes. Namibia remains a wild and isolated country, with few paved roads and vast stretches inaccessible to vehicles. This provides countless opportunities for dynamic and challenging horseback riding. Namibians are a resilient people, deeply proud of their country. Life there is harsh, with horses regularly used for domestic and agricultural work on rugged terrain, which explains the respect they have for their animals.
