Nauams is where adventure meets the untamed beauty of the Khomas Hochland. Ideally located between Windhoek and Sesriem, Nauams is more than just a stopover—it’s an outdoor playground featuring purpose-built cycling and hiking trails, breathtaking landscapes, and true Namibian hospitality.
The Nauams Gravel Grind, created in collaboration with Cycletec, is an epic test of endurance and skill, taking riders through one of Namibia’s most stunning cycling routes. The journey begins with a spectacular descent down Remhoogte Pass, dropping from the highlands into the vast open spaces where the desert begins to unfold. The route winds its way past the iconic settlement of Solitaire, before turning toward the ultimate challenge—the legendary climb up Spreetshoogte Pass. Known as one of Namibia’s steepest and most scenic roads, Spreetshoogte rewards riders with unmatched panoramic views of the Namib Desert—a moment that defines the spirit of this event.
