BreeThis was actually so insane 😭Truly blessed and fortunate to be here 🙏🏽. While in Namibia shooting for the tourism board, we had the opportunity to visit this magical place for sunset! 🇳🇦✨ The iconic trees of Deadvlei are estimated to be 600–900 years old. These ancient camel thorn trees once thrived here before shifting sand dunes blocked the river that supplied their water, leaving them stranded in the desert. What makes them even more interesting is that they never truly rotted. Deadvlei is so dry that the trees were naturally preserved after they died, standing frozen in time for centuries against one of the world’s most surreal landscapes. When visiting, please be respectful and do not carve your name into the trees. Not only is it majorly disrespectful and completely pointless, but if you’re seen by one of the local guides, you can face steep fines and potentially much worse.
