Sossusvlei Dünen, Namibia


Das Sossusvlei liegt in Namibia und ist eine von Namibsand-Dünen umschlossene beige Salz-Ton-Pfanne („Vlei“) in der Namib-Wüste, die nur in seltenen guten Regenjahren Wasser führt. Dann bildet sich sogar für kurze Zeit ein wenige Zentimeter bis mehrere Meter tiefer See am Ende des Vlei. Sossus bedeutet „blinder Fluss“ in der Sprache der Nama. „Blind“ bezieht sich darauf, dass der nach ergiebigen Regenfällen aus einer Gebirgsregion im Landesinneren kommende, in Richtung des Atlantiks fließende Fluss Tsauchab beim Sossusvlei in den Sanddünen der Namib-Küstenwüste endet bzw. versandet – etwa 50 km vom Meer entfernt. Das Gebiet ist Teil des Namib-Naukluft-Nationalparks.
Das Sossusvlei ist seit 21. Juni 2013 Teil des UNESCO-Welterbes des Namib-Sandmeeres.
Sossusvlei (sometimes written Sossus Vlei) is a salt and clay pan surrounded by high red dunes, located in the southern part of the Namib Desert, in the Namib-Naukluft National Park of Namibia. The name "Sossusvlei" is often used in an extended meaning to refer to the surrounding area (including other neighbouring vleis such as Deadvlei and other high dunes), which is one of the major visitor attractions of Namibia.
The name "Sossusvlei" is of mixed origin and roughly means "dead-end marsh". Vlei is the Afrikaans word for "marsh", while "sossus" is Nama for "no return" or "dead end". Sossusvlei owes this name to the fact that it is an endorheic drainage basin (i.e., a drainage basin without outflows) for the ephemeral Tsauchab River.
