How to find us – Driving directions:

 

Travelling from Windhoek (165 km)

After arriving from Mauritius, Windhoek is usually the first destination.
Leave the centre of Windhoek on the C26 (Mandume Ndemufayo Avenue) in a westerly direction. Continue along the C26, cross the Kupferberg Pass past Amani Farm. About 30km after Amani, the C26 turns off on the left towards Walvis Bay via the Gamsberg Pass.

Once you have (slowly and carefully) crossed this spectacular winding route, you will reach Rooisand Desert Ranch within approximately 30 minutes.

The travelling time from Windhoek to Rooisand is approximately 2 to 2.5 hours, allowing for reduced speeds along the passes and gravel road conditions.

 

Travelling from Swakopmund/Walvis Bay (220/190 km)

Leave Swakopmund on the B2 and drive south towards Walvis Bay. At the first roundabout, take the first exit onto the C14 in an easterly direction. After about 140 kilometres you will reach the Kuiseb Pass.

After another 20 kilometres, the C14 continues straight ahead towards Solitaire and the C26 turns left towards Windhoek. Please turn onto the C26! After 30 kilometres you will reach Rooisand Desert Ranch on the right.

The travelling time from Swakopmund to Rooisand is approximately 3 to 3.5 hours, allowing for reduced speeds along the passes and gravel road conditions.
