Sossusvlei

Sossusvlei is the tourist point for 'exploring' the desert which, for the hitchhiker, is rather good seeing as its possible to hitch a ride with people going here in their rental cars.

Some people go south from Windhoek and turn of the B1 a few kilometers south of Rehoboth, some people take the C26. Both should be rather doable.

There are ways of avoiding paying the rip-off camping fee if you don't have a vehicle, simply waiting with setting up your tent until well after dark and then get up way before sunrise is recommended. A lot of people leave from the campsite 1 hour or so before sunrise to make it into the desert to see the sunrise. Talking to people around the campfires in the evening might help arrange a ride.
