The
Spitzkoppe in one of the highest free standing mountains in Namibia and
famous for its remarkable silhouette. Enclosed in the wide planes of
the Erongo region, it towers 700m above the surrounding area, making it
visible even from far distances. Its name suggest the mountain forms a
pointed dome. In fact the Spitzkoppe is formed by two separate peaks
with elevations about 1600 meters. Only the higher one of the two peak
is named due its shape as ‚The Matterhorn of Namibia‘. |
