Tsumkwe

Tsumkwe may be the regional administrative centre, and the largest settlement in the region, but it is no more than a collection of shops, trading stores and bottle shops. You may find Bushman art for sale in stalls or small shops: ostrich egg bracelets and necklaces and colourful beaded bags are the most common items. If you plan to explore the area make sure you have sufficient fuel for your planned mileage. There is a police station and Nature Conservation Office, which is useful for anyone travelling on to the Khaudum Game Park; the office will be able to advise on the condition of the roads and location of the wildlife. Look out for a large baobab tree close by.
Phone code: 067. Police: 10111.
