Ongongo, situated in the Kunene region of Namibia,
offers a brilliant combination of fresh water spring, waterfall
and rock pool.
The rock pool is spectacular and is a good place to spend days hiking,
walking, bird watching or just swimming and relaxing.
At the head of a narrow valley a waterfall, fed by a natural spring,
drops into a small gorge of calcrete cliffs.

Location
6 km from Warmquelle Village, approximately 18 km south of Sesfontein
and 97 km north of Palmwag.
From the main Palmwag-Sesfontein D3706 gravel road, at Warmquelle
Village look out for a sign on the right hand side of the road indicating
a turn to the right.
Follow this track up the valley for approx. 6 km and you will find
the Ongongo.
Access is by 2 x 4 vehicle, but with caution as the road is rocky
and takes some time to negotiate.
2 x 4 drivers are not advised to take their vehicles into the gorge,
which is 4x4 access only.
Vehicles can be left in a parking area at the top and equipment
carried down.
