RED SAND: a theory suggests that the red sand of Sossusvlei originated in the Kalahari Desert and was washed out to sea, where the Benguela current than deposited the red silt back onto Namibian shores, eventually creating what you see today.

DUNE 45: exactly 45 km from Sesriem, thus appropriately named Dune 45, this is the most accessible of all of Sossusvlei's dunes.
It rises over 150 m above the desert floor, and also provides some fantastic photographic apportunities.

HIDDEN VLEI: a short 4 km hike to a vlei that is rarely visited.
Beginning at the car park, follow the white painted fence posts, sporadically marked to the vlei hidden behind all the sand.
It's a beautiful dry vlei surrounded by desolate dunes.
Be sure to take water and your camera !
