Is stopping roadside for a braai a thing in Namibia or are we being naive?

Wait 5 sec.

Hello subs:) My wife and I are heading to Namibia next week and we're currently finalising our plans – specifically around food. We're thinking about stopping roadside (or just slightly off the road) at midday to cook/braai. The areas we're travelling through are roughly between Hardap and Sossusvlei, then north towards Swk and up into Damaraland. We have got 2 questions: - Is it generally safe to do this, or are there animal-related risks we're underestimating (specially in Damaraland)? - Are there any rules around where exactly to stop – e.g. only on open land, avoiding certain vegetation, keeping a certain distance from the road? We're not planning anything elaborate, just a quick gas setup to have a proper meal rather than eating out of a cooler every day. Thanks in advance – really looking forward to it!   submitted by   /u/Jerman0108 [link]   [comments]
