⛰️ Burnt Mountain (Namibia)

Namibia · Africa · 20.62°S, 14.42°E

The Burnt Mountain (German: Verbrannter Berg) is a hill with a solidified lava flow at the foot of a 12-kilometre-long volcanic ridge in Damaraland in northern Namibia. The 80-million-year-old stream of lava was formed by thermal and compression metamorphism and its red, brown, cream and purple colours creates a striking contrast at dusk with the surrounding 200-million-year-old beige rocks of Karoo slate.
