Spitzkoppe in Namibia: the Best Camping Ever
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 авг 2024
- Thinking of going to Spitzkoppe in Namibia? Want to do a self drive camping trip (4x4 camping, to be precise)? Perfect, you're on the right track and we recommend you go for it.
It is as epic as you'd imagine. Amazing camping, climbing, - the campsites are spacious, and the stargazing is absolutely the best we've ever seen in our entire lives. We think we'll have to go back for that reason alone.
Make sure you book slightly in advance, and you'll want to show up around noon if you want your pick of the campsites, because people start driving in around 3-4 to set up their tents or rooftop camp tents to catch the sunset and have dinner.
Affordability: definitely. All of the campsites were priced at $12 when we visited in February of 2019.
Food: You'll want to bring your own. There is a little restaurant at the entrance, but people we talked to recommended against it. Besides, you're camping, so bring a little stove, gas burner, and grill up some meat.
Hygiene: they have pretty great showers, sinks, toilets at the entrance that we used.

Awesome cinematography and editing skills Jimmy
Ready for the oscars 😜
Great video!
It was one of the places that most enchanted me. I loved!
Glad you enjoyed it!
EPIC landscape! Amazing night sky. Car top camping might have been safer but hey you survived. This was awesome. Thank you for sharing.
Still our favorite camping experience of our lives, hands down. If anyone ever asks, we'll always recommend Namibia!
I don't understand why you don't have more subscribers. Your videography and photos are incredible! Maybe Include a link to the site, or name it in the video so that those who would love to stay there (like me haha) would be able to find it :) Great job!
Thanks for the compliment! So we don’t have an exact name for that campsite (like, other than campsite 12 or something, lol) but the rock formation is Spitzkoppe and there’s only a single camping office to register with ✌️
Amazing photography! Good job!
Thanks! 🙏
Great video. Heading there tomorrow so appreciate the tips.
Oh awesome, after a full year of travel it’s still one of our favorite places! Enjoy!! 😁😁
Wow! Great shots, beautifully done! I am currently prepping our trip to Namibia for next year and I am so glad we have booked a night at the Spitzkoppe tented camp! After watching your video I am sure to follow a star / sky photography course or something- really amazing.
Awesome! Hope you have a fantastic time, we totally loved Namibia as an entire country. Try to get a campsite near the natural archway/bridge if you can (might be able to book ahead of time but we showed up ‘day of’ and grabbed one pretty close, it was low season though 😉)
Thanks for watching!! ✌️
you all prolly dont care at all but does someone know of a trick to get back into an instagram account?
I was dumb lost the account password. I love any help you can give me!
@Payton Alexzander instablaster :)
@Titan Ronnie i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im in the hacking process atm.
I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Titan Ronnie It worked and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much you really help me out :D
Way cool... Def reminds me of Arches and Canyon lands... but guys those stars are legit!!! And did you guys ever figure out what the animal was?? #TIA
Dude, now that you mention it, we never researched what kind of cat it was. I have the pics on my phone so I need to do some online comparisons. Recommend rooftop camping for pretty much anywhere on this continent, like you said, TIA 😎
Pics or it didn’t happen 😂 and I’ll keep that rooftop camping in mind!!
Incredible photography Jimmy. Nothing on earth compliments the background better than Maggy. Awesome and thanks fro sharing.
Thanks for watching - and I agree, Maggie + pretty backgrounds = opportunity for great shots! 😁
Girl can't seem to hold onto her Panama hat.
I totally should have watched your video before going. how did you shoot the night sky?
What model of Ray Bans sunglasses are those that you wore at the start of the video?
Great video, can't wait to visit in couple months! What gear did you use for night sky photography? Thank you
We used the GH5 with a Sigma 1.8. Most of the photos were about 10-15 seconds exposure. Much easier than we thought!
nice video👍
Thanks! Have you been to Namibia?
@@BottomLineUpFront no not yet
Did you stay at Logufa camp site or at Spitzkoppe Camp? Logufa also name their camp Spitzkoppe Camp but it is two different companies. If you can share a contact, going there in March.
That's a great question - I can tell you that we stayed at the camp we had access to at the main entrance - I don't know if there are others?
Hi, just came back from Spitz. The camping is inside fenced off conservancy, Spitzkoppe Camp (another one nearby is S Tented Camp, and it is outside), now it is 150 N$ per person per night, or roughly 10 US$. Can not recognize camp site number you stayed at, perhaps 1 A or B, but I could not go up the boulders, path is blocked by stones now.
Which of the camps was this - Spitzekoppe Community Campsite?
Yes I believe that was the one!
