You can join iFIT Trainer Alex Gregory in Africa for a walking series that lets you explore this incredible country. As you anticipate the Namibia Walking Series, here’s some information about this unique region in Africa.
About Namibia
Located on the southwestern coast of Africa, Namibia ranges from arid temperatures in the north, to reefs and shoals of what is known as the “Skeleton Coast.” There is a spectacularly unique landscape, offering desert, mountains, canyons, and savannas for endless exploration. While Namibia is known as the driest country in the sub-Saharan region, it is also home to plenty of flora, fauna, and wildlife.
