Gross Barmen Hot Springs

Gross Barmen, a hot spring haven, offers therapeutic waters ranging from a toasty 65°C cooling to a soothing 40°C in the thermal pool. Nestled near a former Rhenish mission station, transformed into a thermal paradise in 1975, it draws from depths of 2500 metres. Under the care of Namibia Wildlife Resort, it's a year-round escape along a Swakop River tributary, perfect for self-drive adventurers en route to Swakopmund or Etosha National Park, and a delightful day trip from Windhoek. The resort enchants with lush palm-fringed gardens, a bird-watcher's dream at the dam, and a health and hydro/medical spa centre featuring invigorating thermal springs.
