Otjozondjupa

A north-central Namibian region with the Waterberg Plateau and a cheetah conservation organization, a convenient stop on the drive north.

Otjozondjupa lies in north-central Namibia, with Otjiwarongo as its capital. Waterberg Plateau Park is known for its red sandstone plateau and the protection of rare wildlife, and near Otjiwarongo the Cheetah Conservation Fund offers insight into cheetah conservation. Near Grootfontein lies the Hoba meteorite, the largest known meteorite in the world. The Nyae Nyae Conservancy in the east offers encounters with San culture. The dry season (roughly May–Oct) is the best time to visit, and the B1 highway runs through the region, linking Windhoek with the north.
