Gondwana Canyon Park

Land area
  • 1,164 km2

Occupying a large area in the north-east of the landscape, Gondwana Canyon Park is the first piece of land acquired in 1995 by the Gondwana Collection and is now the largest and oldest nature reserve of the Gondwana Collection.

By now it is seen as ‘Little Etosha’: nowhere else in southern Namibia are animals found in similar numbers and diversity: species which once used to roam the area are finally back again - like springbok, oryx antelope, hartebeest, blue wildebeest, ostrich, plains and mountain zebra, kudu and klipspringer.
