Getting here & planning

Before you set off

Namibia is a country you drive yourself. What you need to know is here — and what is still missing is marked as such.

The way to the farm

Location of the farm in the Khomas Highland, with distances to Windhoek, the coast and Etosha 50 km 100 km 150 km 200 km N Daybreak 22°32′42″S · 16°16′34″E Windhoek 81 km Hosea Kutako Airport 123 km Okahandja 91 km Karibib 81 km Usakos 108 km Spitzkoppe 137 km Swakopmund 180 km Walvis Bay 187 km Etosha 376 km → 100 km as the crow flies
Distances are straight-line, computed from coordinates. Road distance and driving time differ and are not yet recorded.
draft: The exact route from Windhoek, the road classes (tarred up to where, gravel after that), a realistic driving time and the last fuel stop before the farm must be confirmed by the operation. So far only the straight-line distance of 81 kilometres west is known and computed.

draft: Whether a four-wheel drive is required or a car with raised ground clearance will do depends on the state of the final kilometres. This is missing and should not be guessed — it concerns guest safety.

draft: Temperatures, rainfall and typical conditions by season in the Kaan river valley. No reliable climate figures for this location are available; general Namibia figures would be misleading for a highland valley at 1,100 metres.
