Northern Namibia's thunderous and waterfall-dotted perennial river
In the northern Kaokoland, home to the semi-nomadic Himba people, you will find the magnificent Kunene River forming the border between Angola and Namibia for about 325 km. This river is one of only a few perennial rivers in Namibia and so, these waters are a precious life source for an area that is sparsely populated but holds incredible wildlife like desert-adapted elephants and rhinos, and Nile crocodiles. Explore the scenic Ruacana Falls and Epupa Falls found along the river, and admire the contrast between lush river banks and arid mountains.
