One of the main attractions for any visitor to Namibia, is the massive dunes at Sossusvlei, which are amongst the largest in the world.
The equally spectacular phenomenon of the disappearance of the Tsauchab river into the desert sand at Sossusvlei, Deadvlei and Hidden Vlei, is also an attraction not to be missed.
Desert Hills Lodge is located about 36 km from Sesriem, gracefully perched on a natural stone outcrop, providing spectacular views of the desert and the sunset over the Namib.
The luxury lodge is ideally situated for guests to relax in the tranquil atmosphere, but close enough to explore the adventurous activities on offer at Sossusvlei.
