Create your Sossusvlei map poster

The pan and surrounding landmarks are among Namibia's major visitor attractions. About 500 people are recorded in the area, but terrain rather than settlement dominates the map.

Access tracks approach a flat vlei floor enclosed by dune ridges. Pan edges and dune contours replace the connected street network found on an urban map.

A three-kilometre frame places Sossusvlei's flat pan at the center of its dune field. Only a small number of access tracks cross the larger natural forms.

A chalk-white clay pan can sit inside dune contours built from rust and terracotta bands. Access tracks need only a thin charcoal mark across that open terrain.
