A few million years ago an inland lake was formed there. Nowadays, in particularly rainy years, you are lucky enough to have some water collecting there, attracting thousands of flamingos and other waterfowl.

Each 20 minutes detour from Tsumeb or Grootfontein, you could view either the beautiful Guinassee or the Hoba Meteorite, the largest meteorite discovered on earth to date. When you arrive at the Waterberg Plateau National Park, pristine nature and unfortunate history await you. In 1904 German soldiers fought here against the Herero population, they had to flee and lived afterwards in a very dry area, where survival was hardly possible. The national park impresses with dreamlike nature from savannah to almost tropical area with a lot of green. The variety of animals is therefore also very diverse, so there are giraffes, leopards, antelopes or also the extremely rare vulture species, the Cape vulture, as well as many other animals.
