Solitaire

As the name suggests, Solitaire is a lonely place in the middle of absolutely nowhere. The only reason it exists at all is to service visitors who are heading for Sesriem Canyon and the sand dunes at Sossusvlei.

It used to have one solitary tree, one petrol pump, a take away kiosk and a captive puff adder. But big things have been happening here and there are now a couple petrol pumps, a full-blown cafeteria and small shop and possibly some basic accommodation.

The dead tree is still standing stark against the flat dry landscape, but the puff adder has gone.
