The Namib Desert covers the entire western length of Namibia. Towards the east the coastal plains rise up the escarpment, characterised by deeply eroded valleys and rugged mountain ranges.

The escarpment extends as a narrow series of mountain ranges from the Orange River to the Swakop River and separates the coastal regions and the central highlands, which comprise rolling plains dotted with scattered hills and medium mountain ranges averaging about 1700 m in height.

Towards the east the mountainous Kaokoland and the central highlands slope into an extensive plateau of 1500 - 1000 m above sea level, while the south-eastern part of the country is partly covered by the red dunes of the Kalahari Desert.
