Windhoek: Bushman Walk with the San
Join us for a Bushman Walk with the San to learn about the ancient way of living of the indigenous hunters & gatherers.
Highlights
- Experience a natural bushwalk
- Discover the ancient knowledge of the indigenous San
- Experience the life of hunters & gatherers
Description
These San are the only Bushmen in Windhoek who share their ancient knowledge of the traditional hunter-gatherer lifestyle. This is what you will experience during the Bushman Walk:
- Introduction to their click language
- Ancient wisdom of bush plants and their uses
- Mastering fire making
- Crafting with ostrich egg shells
- Gaining insight into the contemporary challenges faced by the San
Through this activity, the culture of the San can remain alive, and the younger generations of them can acquire nearly forgotten skills. The income from these activities provides the impoverished San with an opportunity to sustain themselves.
