PMR569-10
Namibia: Fish River Canyon is on average 500 metres deep and extends for 161 kilometres. It was originally caused by an earthquake about 300 million years ago, and two distinct surface levels can be discerned, due to later erosion. View to the west of the car park, along the lip of the canyon.
