| Farm Gunsbewys Tiras Mountains |
The small guesthouse offers up to 4 beds, as well as a
small campsite for only a view guests. Situated on the road 707, 80 km from
Helmeringhausen, 90 km from Aus. C 13 branches off to the 707 at Neisip,
which is well marked. After 26 km turn left to Farm Gunsbewys. Again 3 km to
the farmhouse. Farm Gunsbewys lies in the unique red dunes of the Namib
desert. Since many years the farm operates as a game farm only. Ostriches
and Oryx antelope roam the unspoiled nature. They often visit a natural
water whole near the farm house. Long stretching dunes are the natural border
to the Namib Naukluft Park. Here you will find many endemic beetles. At
night you'll hear the sound of the barking geckos, you find the Palmato
gecko and if you are lucky you can spot the dune cricket which builds
tunnels into the dune sand.
The shape of the red sand at dawn and dusk are of amazing beauty. To sit at
the guest house admiring the landscape will be unforgettable. You will be
truly amazed by the magnificent night sky. The farm stretches to the Tiras
mountains where you can find almost forgotten bushman settlements. With the
sun going down the Tiras Mountains appear red and the clear line of the
horizon is visible until the thestars come up. Solar energy is used to pump
water, run all necessary kitchen appliances and is the source for light.
