The Tsauchab River has shaped the Sesriem Canyon over millions of years, and it is one of the few places in this area that holds water all year round. The early Afrikaans explorers in the region named the canyon after the fact that they had to use six (“ses”) leather straps (“riem”) tied together to create a rope long enough to lower buckets into the canyon below, in order to fetch water.
