Situated in Keetmanshoop, Namibia, I visited the Kokerboom Forest in the company of dozens of other tourists for a refreshing and interactive nature walk. The Kokerboom forest is a forest that consists of a rare species of aloe dichotoma trees that are also referred to as quiver trees. I really enjoyed each and every minute of the nature trail at the unique forest which consists of scattered trees. I learnt during the interactive sessions with fellow tourist that the branches of the strange tree species in Namibia were and are still used by Bushmen as quivers for their poisoned hunting arrows. Our tour guide informed us that the Keetmanshoop Kokerboom Forest has an average of about 250 trees which are protected by the government as national reserve. The forest has an amazing landscape and scenic views for photography.
