Historical South

An Exclusive Journey Through Time, Wilderness, and Wonder

Step back in time and trace the echoes of Namibia’s ancient past — from the depths of the Fish River Canyon to the windswept coast of Lüderitz and the red sands of the Kalahari. This is not just a cycling expedition; it’s a moving story told by stone, sand, and stars — one pedal stroke at a time.

The Land Where Time Stands Still

Southern Namibia is a place where history and geology intertwine. Here, the earth reveals its secrets through vast canyons, shifting deserts, and fossils carved into stone. The mighty Orange River marks the country’s southern border — a ribbon of life winding through the desert, shaping both land and legend.

This is where Namibia’s story began — in the depths of the Fish River Canyon, the second largest canyon on Earth, and among the ghostly relics of its diamond rush past. Today, the region remains raw, remote, and astonishingly beautiful — a living museum of creation.

Tour Highlights

• Ride deep into the Fish River Canyon — 4 unforgettable days cycling along its ridges and riverbeds, cooling off in vast canyon pools and tracing millions of years of geological history.
• Conquer the Rosh Pinah Mountains and Richtersveld, a landscape sculpted by time, where the strange Half-Man (Pachypodium namaquanum) stands guard like a sentinel of myth.
• Follow the Orange River to Sendelingsdrift — Namibia’s southernmost edge — and swim where desert meets life.
• Cycle alongside the wild desert horses of the Sperrgebiet and witness the desert’s miraculous transformation into a sea of wildflowers after winter rains.
• Explore Klein Aus Vista and its famous Aus Alpen Ridge, a mountain biking paradise surrounded by silence and sweeping views.
• Step into history at the ghost town of Kolmanskop and the old German port of Lüderitz — the last echoes of Namibia’s diamond fever.
• Ride through Namibia’s largest Black Rhino relocation area, where the species has returned after centuries of absence.
• End your journey in the Kalahari, where red dunes and golden grass mark the transition from desert to savanna — a gentle farewell to the wild south.
