Welcome to Karasburg!
ǁKaras is a region in southern Namibia. This area is rich in gem-quality diamonds and has restricted access, so you can only enter the area as part of an organized tour. There are several ghost towns to explore.
Karasburg (Khoekhoe: ǀNomsoros, old name Afrikaans: Kalkfontein, literally "carst spring") is a town of 4,000 inhabitants in the ǁKaras Region of southern Namibia and the district capital of the Karasburg electoral constituency. It lies at the heart of the southern Namibian sheep farming industry.
