Enjoy an off-road bike adventure through stunning desert and over dunes
Namibia is a vast country with wide-open spaces and endless skies. Dunes gradually turn into granite hills, while rocky outcrops give way to vast plains where elephants, giraffes and lions roam. Travelling through the wilderness by bike is undoubtedly one of the best ways to experience the varied landscape of this desert nation and there is also the unique experience of cycling over dunes on a modified fat bike. Discover the highlights and hidden secrets of the country on two wheels, watch the sun rise over some of the tallest dunes in the world and experience game drives in one of the best game reserves in southern Africa, Etosha National Park.
June, July and August, while clear and warm during the day, can be cold and even freezing at night. Between September and May, it is considerably warmer with the time between October and April being the hottest, when it often reaches 30C (86F). However, it is always a dry heat and the temperature does drop at night. The wet season is between November and February (this can vary a month either side), but this is not a bad time to go as the desert blooms after rainfall and it never rains for very long.
Average daily distance: 24mi (39km)
Number of cycling days: Eight (including a morning fat biking)
Vehicle support: Fully supported with the exception of the fat biking excursion
The cycling is approximately 90 percent on gravel/dirt roads or off road and 10 percent on paved roads. There is a mix of terrain, including some rolling rides, flat, downhill and uphill sections. The support vehicle is available, especially for the more challenging sections. Most of the cycling on roads is with little traffic, though there may be some busier sections.
The fat biking on dunes is with a specialist guide and on modified bikes. You receive a tutorial before setting off but no experience is necessary. The terrain is rolling and you have the opportunity to cycle some steep gradients down the dunes. However, there is always the option of cycling down a gentler slope.
On all days, we may do less or more cycling than stated in the Trip Notes. This depends on the ability and preference of the group plus the local conditions at the time.
It can get hot in Namibia and shade is not common on most of the rides.
Helmets must be worn by all cyclists in Namibia.
Please note: If you’re booking your own flights, you should not book flights leaving before 3pm on the departure day.
