Dune 45 is an iconic star dune located in the Namib Desert, just 45 kilometres from the Sesriem gate and Sossusulei. Standing tall at over 170 meters high, Dune 45 is a popular destination for visitors wanting to explore and connect with the ancient sands of Namibia. The millions of years old sand was created by the detritus accumulated by the Orange River from the Kalahari Desert and still attracts awe-inspiring sunrise and sunset views. This unique spot is the perfect place for adventurous souls to climb to the top and witness magnificent views of the surrounding desert.
