About Canyon Roadhouse

Quirky desert oasis
You don’t expect to come across this gem in the dry, sprawling Namibian desert. Step into a bygone era at this colourful roadhouse that’s become an institution over the years. Only twenty minutes from the Fish River Canyon, you’ll find a cold beverage, the best Amarula cheesecake south of the Sahara and a cheerful reception here.
