The Uniab River is located between Torra Bay and Terrace Bay in Namibia. The river once created a large river delta with five main watercourses. Today it continues to flow only in one of the watercourses the fourth one when approaching from the south, but subterranean water surfaces as springs in the other channel. These springs are lifeline to the springbok and oryx roaming this desolate stretch of coast and also attract a variety of birds. The river trickles over a waterfall into a narrow gorge through bright reddish-pink sandstone and yellow calcrete formations. The Uniab is a temporary river and is best known possibly as desert-adopted elephant country. There is a large animal presence in and around the river including zebra, lion, leopard, black rhino and giraffe. The river is actually a great tourist attraction with what it has in and around it and the different views it has. Like the nice air view from the Skeleton Coast of Namibia.On the dry banks of the river there is a lodge called the Palmwag Lodge and tourists can visit this lodge and enjoy what the river has to offer. The Palmwag Lodge is one of Namibias oldest tourist destinations. ==See also== *River Delta 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Uniab River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
