Located just 10 km as the crow flies and 45 minutes by road (D2695) from Etosha National Park, Tandala Ridge B&B on Windpoort Farm provides the excitement of Etosha without the restrictions and risks. The wild game species are beautiful, accessible and benign. No elephant or lion, but plenty of kudu, Oryx, red hartebeest, zebra and eland. Smaller antelope such as duiker, dik dik and steenbok abound as well as the rare Welwitchi hyrax, Jameson's rock rabbit, dassie rat and striped tree squirrel. Four species new to science have been found on Windpoort Farm - a rock mouse, an elephant shrew, an agamid lizard and a gecko. On Windpoort Farm (5850 ha) experience the cradle of mankind with its many Paleolithic stone tool sites, and the cradle of life itself with hectares of stromatolites - 650 million year-old fossil blue-green algae, the first life form on earth.
