FLIGHT DETAILS
Airstrip hopping around the Namib desert, the NamibRand-Naturreservat in particular, visiting the stunning location of Sossusvlei.
This area is full of tourist lodges for good reason. Stunning mountain and desert views with a lot of variation. Fly between and over the mountain ridges while enjoying the varied colors of the desert. The route links 10 airfields together serving different lodges. Take your time to enjoy the landscape or see how quickly you can visit them all.
We may end on the second to last airport, FYWD, if out of time.
