Mariental Travel Guide: 2 reviews and 13 photos

Mariental

Mariental is almost 200 km from Keetmanshoop, and quite tiny little town like rest of the Namib towns... there are not places of great interests to see in town its dry and hot region all around.. so only thing one can stop for beer or two may be on way to Windhoek or over night at Hardap Dam

namibian handi craft

from Keetmanshoop to Windhoek there are almost 10 different shops of such type of shops... handicrafts made of various animals' skins... specially sheeps, goats and boks... most of such shop are located around Mariental..

african art

the walls of resturant where i had some beers, were decorated with such arts

    Visited Hardap Dam campsite in December 2010. Place is in a terrible condition, electrical boxes vandalised, broken windows in ablution blocks, no taps, no grass, no shade etc. Shame, it is a beautiful location and the staff were very nice.

    It is wonderful sunsets. Never been to that area but it looks lovely.
