An isolated population survives much further south near the Ugab river. This part of Damaraland is scenically spectacular. Vast plains dotted with granite boulder islands and dominated by towering mountain fortresses are the home of the southernmost population in Namibia. In dry times the black rhinos traverse extremely rugged terrain to waterholes far from their feeding grounds.
