The area is one of the wildest and least populated areas in Namibia, with a population density of one person every 2 km (1/4 of the national average). The most represented ethnic group is the Himba people, who account for about 5,000 of the overall 16,000 inhabitants of Kaokoland. The main settlement in Kaokoland was the city of Opuwo.
Last and only last because of its remote location, difficult access and the impossibly stiff competition before it, Kaokoland is like Damarland on full volume, on steroids, on a mission to become the least explored part of one of the least populated countries on Earth. Kaokoland is special. Here is where we Namibians "get away from it all" although quite what we're getting away from is a mystery to me.
Enormous, virtually impassable mountain ranges, all the desert-adapted wildlife of Damaraland to the south and mile upon square mile of uninhabited, scenic splendour. Kaokoland is where the fascinating Himba people live - off the land in harmony with nature.
Best suited to adventurous self-drive 4x4 camping adventures with more than one vehicle, Kaokoland is quite likely on everybody's second-visit bucket list. And a second visit you will want after skimming the surface of this ancient and beautiful country.
