It's that time of year again. It's sunny and cold and bone dry in the capital and even the most persisting greenery has faded into pale shades of grey and beige. If you long for some lush vegetation and a hint of rainy season, look (drive!) no further than the Waterberg plateau. Well, chances of rain are just as low here than anywhere else in the country during the winter months, but when climbing the slopes up to the Waterberg lookout this beautiful destination still has an almost tropical feel. The good thing is, it's a short drive from Windhoek (by Namibian standards at least) and just the perfect distance for a relaxing weekend trip. Pack your camping gear and stock up on fire wood and mulled wine on the way. It will keep you warm when sharing stories around the fireplace after your descent from the mountain. But beware of the leopards...
