Springbok, Goegap Nature Reserve, Namaqua National Park, Richtersveld....wild flowers in the Springbok area/Northern Cape

accommodation, activities...

Springbok
On your way from Cape Town to Namibia Springbok is the last "bigger" settlement before you reach the border. The distance to Cape Town is 560 km and Windhoek -920 km - is still far away. Therefore many people like to stay here voernight. The little town of Springbok offers different kind of accommodation for the visitor.

Goegap Nature Reserve
This nature reserve, 15 km from the town of Springbok, is also known for its wild flowers in spring time. The sandy plateau between mountain peaks (up to 1.345 m) is home to wild animals like Springbok, Oryx, jackal and zebra.
Some of the roads need a 4x4. Many people go their to enjoy the trails (4 to 12 km).

Namaqua National Park
This national park is situated 500 km north of Cape Town near the Atlantic Ocean. Namaqualand is famous for its carpets of wild flowers (approx. 3.500 species) that occur after the winter rains. This annual event can usually be seen in August/September. It also contains the Silkpad Wildflower Reserve and the ecosystem between the rivers Groen and Spoeg. Namaqua National Park is also a retreat to wild animals like Klipspringer, baboon and leopard. Enjoy the nature on a trail or on a drive. 

Richtersveld National Park
Richtersveld is meanwhile part of the Peace Park concept. Nowadays it belongs to the Richtersveld/Ai-Ais Transfrontier Conservation Area that includes the mighty Fish River Canyon in Namibia. Most roads are only accessible by 4x4.
The scenery in Richtersveld is rugged and climbs constantly from the
Orange River
valley up to high mountains. Only flora and fauna adapted to desert conditions can be seen here. Giant aloes and quiver trees occur. From April to September some offroad-trails (4x4) are offered.
