Daan Viljoen Game Park

A low-hill wildlife reserve about 20 km west of the city, where you can see zebras, giraffes and antelope by car or on foot without venturing far.

The reserve sits in the hills of the Khomas Highland, has no large predators, and allows walking. It is the closest wildlife experience to the capital. Mountain zebras, giraffes, kudu, eland, wildebeest and baboons are common, and the dam area is rich in birdlife. There are several short walking trails and self-drive routes, and from the summit you can look out over the city of Windhoek. The park has a holiday camp and restaurant where you can spend a night. Entry requires a ticket.
