Rote Sanddünen mit trockenem Gras und vereinzelten Bäumen vor dunklen Bergen unter bewölktem Himmel.

Experience the spectacular view from Elim Dune at sunset and enjoy the play of colours of the Namib Desert in the golden evening hours.

What you can experience here

Elim Dune offers you an incomparable place to fully enjoy the impressive evening atmosphere of the Namib Desert. Without the hustle and bustle of the better-known dunes, you can peacefully admire the vast red sand landscape here while the sun slowly sets.

In contrast to the more famous dunes, the focus here is not on physical effort but on the panoramic view that immediately captivates you. The deep red dunes glow in the warm light while the surroundings are bathed in gentle shades – perfect for a relaxing evening in the desert or for fascinating photo opportunities.

The best time to visit Elim Dune is in the late afternoon hours when the sun sets. Elim Dune is only about 5 kilometres from the park entrance at Sesriem and is therefore an ideal place to round off an eventful day in Namib-Naukluft Park.
