Bucket List Hikes
KuiseB 90 Hike
This five-day hike, stretching for at least 90 kilometres, takes you to one of the last true wilderness areas on Earth, with a largely unknown canyon at its heart. Steeped in history, and mythologised by the bestselling book The Sheltering Desert, Namibia’s magical Kuiseb Canyon will enthrall, bedazzle and ultimately “test” you like few other hikes on Earth. But it promises a huge opportunity for self-growth and a sense of accomplishment, as you traverse a harsh, yet sublime landscape, following the tracks of leopard, hyena, zebra
and oryx, while being surrounded by cliffs more than a hundred metres tall.

Tips and Advice
Understanding Backpack Volume: A Guide to Sizing
Most major backpack manufacturers measure the volume of their backpacks by adding up the total volume of the closed storage on their packs, including the main compartment, pockets, and hip belt pockets that can be closed or zippered shut. However, many smaller manufacturers use a different method and include open pockets like side water bottle pockets
or rear mesh pockets in addition to the closed storage. This can make weight-to-volume comparisons a little misleading when comparing packs from different manufacturers When in doubt, contact the manufacturer to ask what method they use to measure backpack volume.
