Our departure starts on Saturday at dawn from the camp to arrive at the park gate for sunrise. We drive down an ancient river bed surrounded by towering dunes to the 2x4 parking (around 55 kms) and take a 4x4 shuttle into the Sossusvlei area where the early morning light provides excellent opportunities for photography coupled with appreciation and enjoyment of the area. Prior to heading into the Dead Vlei, we explore this region on foot and later take the 4x4 shuttle or walk back to our vehicle.
