Weltevrede Guest farm
Situated in the heart of the Namib Desert, some 300 kilometers south west of Windhoek and bordered on three sides by the Namib Naukluft Park, Weltevrede Guest Farm is the home of abundant wildlife and gateway to the famed Sossusvlei dunes and Sesriem Canyon. Nestled amidst a spectacular mix of rugged mountains, shifting dunes, harsh gravel plains, dusty prehistoric river beds and endless Camel-thorn trees (Acacia Erioloba), you'll find Weltevrede a welcome oasis of friendly hospitality at the end of your adventuresome day.

Active wildlife conservation is being practiced by the current owners since 1994. Numerous man- made waterholes have been established, some requiring daily manual filling. There are more than a thousand Springbuck on the farm. Regular Cheetah sightings have been recorded the last few years. Other species to be seen are Giraffes, Jackal, Leopard, Mountain Zebra, Ground Squirrels, Kudu, Gemsbok(Oryx), Ostriches, various bird- and insect species
