The capital town of Namibia's south — explore the Quiver Tree Forest and Giant's Playground
Keetmanshoop is the centre of southern Namibia’s Karas region, a semi-arid site boasting incredible rock formations. The village was established when a German missionary was sent to the region to build a church and today, Keetmanshoop is the capital of southern Namibia with the country's largest dam built next to it. This town is not only a convenient stop-over on your way to other popular Namibian destinations, but it’s also filled with many natural and historical attractions among its vast landscapes and colonial German architecture.
