Regional centre, scenic river, boating and fishing, Caprivi stopover

Namibia town

Rundu

Rundu is a busy regional centre on the Okavango River providing a popular crossing to Angola and good stopover on the route into the Caprivi Strip.

The scenic river provides the chief attractions of Rundu with boat trips, canoeing, good fishing and excellent sunsets as well as the local population of crocodile.

The local Kavango people are known for their expertise in wood-carving.

During more turbulent times in late 20th century, the area was used by South African forces in its war with Angola. Broad military access roads are very evident along the border.
