I have been walking my dogs in the reserve ,almost daily, for many years. A network of well laid out trails lead around the dam. Friendly security staff are placed around main walking trails. The dam wall itself is paved making it accessible for wheelchairs.

So many trails to explore. Each day a new adventure. Safe parking space with friendly and reliable guards at the entrance from 7am to 6pm in the winter. You can easily walk trails for more than 12km.

Was here last week Sunday. Nice place still inside Windhoek. Quiet and relaxing. One star lost because people dont remove dirt from their dogs. Is everywhere especially around entrance. Dog keepers should be advised to care.
