The Bahnhof Hotel was initially built in 1906. After extensive renovations in 2005 this Jewel of the Spergebiet has imperturbably grown in size and rating alike. The overall atmosphere and the personal touch within the realm of this establishment are setting it off from many other players in this field.
The small town of Aus has an astonishing rich history dating back to German colonial times. This charming village was once the hub of many Ox-wagon transporters and traders. Remains of the POW (prisoners of war) camp can still be seen today followed by many stories of hardship, bravery, diamond rushes and the coming of the railway. The hotel has 26 immaculate clean rooms, elegantly yet frugally decorated, each with en suite facilities. The hotel serves a large variety of outstanding cuisine, cakes and beverages throughout the day. Day tours to historical sites and the Huib Park reveal some of the most gripping and breathtakingly beautiful landscapes on our planet.

Day trip to Tsau//Khaeb Park & Roter Kamm Crater
Departure will be at 8h00 from the Bahnhof Hotel in Aus on asphalt road C 13 towards Rosh Pinah in a closed game viewing vehicle. After about 60 km we head west over private farmland/along with river courses through barren but always varied landscapes to the Tsau//Khaeb Park border. In the park, we move along predefined routes through vast desert landscapes, which always offer something interesting and new due to their endless horizons and changing wildlife. Claypans, overgrown dunes, gravel plains are some of the impressions this part of the Namib has to offer. Since this landscape has been a restricted area for almost one hundred years, nature is still very much in its original state.
At noon we will have a small snack, which will be taken somewhere outdoors, depending on the time or the landscape.
After about 60 km we approach the highlight of the trip: the Aurus Mountains. Here a 90-minute hike has to be done, between endemic plants and other rare plants, some of which require a trained eye to be discovered. At the highest point, there is an upright stone, through whose Africa-shaped “peephole” you can get an impressive view of the Roter Kamm Crater, which still lies about 20 km away.
From here it takes about an hour and a half drive to the Roter Kamm itself, where you can trudge or climb up to the crater rim. For the return trip eastward which starts here, it also takes just under 90 minutes to get back to the C13 tar road to Aus at Witpütz, a former police station. On the 120 km long stretch to Aus, you have enough time to reflect on what you have seen and muse over your experience.
A piece of landscape, whose impressions not many people have been privileged to see and experience ... !
The intended arrival at the Bahnhof Hotel is at 16h00, which could possibly be prolonged a bit because of intermediate stops along the route.
