Aus

Aus is a small town situated in the Karas Region of southern Namibia, known for its stark desert beauty and historical significance. Located along the B4 highway, which connects it to the South African border and the Namibian capital, Windhoek, Aus serves as a vital gateway to the surrounding arid landscapes. The town is renowned for its role as a railway hub during the colonial era, with its historical buildings and the old railway station reflecting its rich past. The surrounding area is characterized by the rugged terrain of the Namib Desert, offering a unique contrast between the town’s colonial architecture and the vast, unspoiled natural environment.

The region around Aus is also famous for its wildlife and natural attractions. Just a short drive from the town is the Aus Lion Reserve, where visitors can witness the remarkable efforts to reintroduce lions into the wild. The reserve provides a glimpse into Namibia's commitment to wildlife conservation and offers an opportunity to see these majestic animals in their natural habitat. Additionally, Aus is close to the Fish River Canyon, one of the largest canyons in the world, and the picturesque Namibian desert landscapes that attract tourists seeking adventure and tranquility. The town’s blend of historical charm and proximity to natural wonders makes it a noteworthy stop for travelers exploring southern Namibia.
