SHORT INFORMATION

Rivers Of Namibia

A river is a large body of water that flows over land in a long channel. Most rivers begin high in the mountains or hills. A river's source may be a melting snowfield or glacier (although in Namibia we generally rule these 2 options out!), a spring, or an overflowing lake. As a river flows in its channel, it receives more water from streams and other rivers, and from rainfall. At the end of a river is its mouth, where the water empties into a larger river, a lake, or an ocean.
