Annual Namib
Desert Run Reloaded
A journey of a lifetime as we embark on a 6-day tour to the dunes of Swakopmund and travel through the diverse terrains of the Namib Desert.
Namib Desert Run
Set your sense
of adventure free
The Namib Desert Run is an off-road journey through the diverse scenery of the most iconic landscapes of Namibia. Experience the full spectrum of the African desert as we travel through incredible riding roads varying from long straight tarmac, twisty mountain passes, salt pans, river beds, beaches and the infamous dunes of the Namib desert.
This 40 year old venture is a social, non-competitive fun trip requiring no special riding or driving skills or special vehicles. The two days of sandy or difficult sections have corresponding alternate routes which are used by the heavier on/off or non-MX bikes and the non-4×4 cars, everyone meeting up every day at overnight stops.
