Drone aerial video of Spitzkoppe & Pontok Mountains in Erongo Region of Namibia, southern Africa

Aerial video of Namibia's Spitzkoppe and Pontok Mountains located in Erongo Region, between towns of Usakos and Swakopmund, taken in March 2021. #Spitzkoppe #Namibia #AfricaSafari Spitzkoppe Mountain: http://www.namibweb.com/spitzkoppe.htm Горы Шпицкоппе и Понток составляют гранитную горную формацию, состоящую из нескольких пиков, расположенная между городами Юсакос и Свакопмунд, в пустыне Намиб, центральная Намибия (регион Эронго). Возраст скал составляет более 120 миллионов лет. Самый высокий пик достигает высоты 1784 м над уровнем моря и почти на 700 м выше окружающего плато. Spitzkoppe, one of the most often photographed sites in Namibia and country's well-known landmark, is located off the main B2 road Usakos - Swakopmund. Together with the Brandberg or the nearby Erongo Mountains, Spitzkoppe is the most famous (although not one of the highest) mountains in the country. For the Namibians it is hard to appreciate nature's beauty because it is something that people see everyday and it has become part of their everyday life. However, when people from other countries come to explore the country they truly get amused by its natural beauty. The age of the mountain is more than 700 million years. In 1946 the Spitzkoppe was first climbed from its western face. Ever since then the mountain remained popular for Namibian and foreign climbers. The Spitzkoppe rises about 1784 meters (5857 feet) above the flat surrounding plain. There are large variety of plants in the area, such as the Myrothamnus flabellifolius, Boscia foetida and the Kleinia longiflora. Almost the only tree specie to be seen is the Acacia reficiens. Bird life is represented by several species one of these is the Herero Chat which is one of most beautiful birds in the area. The Spitzkoppe has one of the most beautiful sunsets and sunrises in Namibia. The sun changes its colour from a light orange to a dark yellowish. Just before dark one can experience peace and quietness whilst viewing magnificent open land. The quietness allows one to listen to the little creatures and they move around and make up all sorts of noises. At night one can watch the stars in the open sky. If it is a full moon, one can appreciate all the light scattering over the waste land. The Spitzkoppe is also known as the ''Matterthorn of Africa.'' The "Matterhorn" of Namibia The Spitzkoppe is situated about 120 km north-east of Swakopmund and is a mere 30 km away from the well-travelled route between Usakos and Swakopmund. Actually the Spitzkoppe consists of two separate mountains: The large Spitzkoppe, which is 1728 m high and the small Spitzkoppe, which has a height of 1584 metres. Further west we also find the so-called Pontok Mountains. For hikers and mountaineers the Spitzkoppe is a paradise. Beginners can practice nicely here and for professionals the ascent of the peak is a real challenge as it is difficult. The first ascent of the challenging west side was in 1946 and up to today only 600 roped parties have succeeded to reach the peak. One reason for this is also that during the summer months it is not possible to climb the Spitzkoppe due to the unbearable heat. All around the Spitzkoppe hundreds of rock paintings can be found, same goes for the Pontok Mountains. Here you find the most prominent place of discovery, the so-called Bushmen’s Paradise. Unfortunately many paintings have been damaged by vandalism. You will also find paintings of rhino here, which indicates that the animals must have roamed the area many, many years ago. The Rock Arch is also a well-known formation and has featured as backdrop in numerous films already and which has been depicted in calendars, photographic competitions and in travel guides.
