We will succeed in passing with a normal car? All cards in Namibia showed the tracks north of Opuwo passable only with 4x4, but the desire of advancing in the region of the Himba was such that you decide to get Opuwo to make information a bit more closely.
Opuwo to tell us that is difficult but not impossible, the main pitfall long sandy stretches where we could become bogged Polo.
We decide to groped. Stocks of food and water and we start along the road we moving to a couple of Himba girls, who despite the cover to avoid leaving the ocher on seats, however, leave us a beautiful reddish memory (if have to see the boys washing).
Some stretches are very insidious and is necssario better get off to check the conditions of the sand, would be a breeze with a jeep, but a car with normal ...!
The trip from Opuwo to Epupa falls takes about 5 hours, but finally we reached the destination safely and without damage to the car. For Epupa falls there is a camping area to be managed by the local community well-positioned on the waterfalls.
For the return, no problem just retrace the tracks of the day before ......
