Kaokoland (or Kaokoveld) NamibiaEast of the Skeleton Coast Park lies a very rugged area that is one of Namibia’s most scenic regions – Kaokoland. Kaokoland is a starkly beautiful landscape of table top mountains, cone shaped hills, and rock- strewn plains where desert dwelling elephant, rhino and giraffe roam. The Kaokoveld is also home the home of the nomadic Himba people, who migrate seasonally with their herds of livestock in search of grazing, much as they did a century ago. Covering some 49, 500km sq Kaokoland stretches from the Hoanib river northward to the Kunene. Among it scenic attractions are the Epupa Falls and Ruacana Falls, as well as the rapids at Enyandi and Ondorusu.
