A long day's drive from Fort Sesfontein up to Epupa Falls on
the Cunene River which is the border between Namibia and Angola. Here there was
a lovely tented lodge right on the river's edge where you could bird watch and
look over into Angola. The falls were very scenic - especially when viewed with
a cold sundowner in one's hand!

Steep hills exist - to our surprise this bit had been tarred to make it passable! |
