The Brandberg Massif or Brandberg Intrusion is a dome-shaped plateau in Namibia. It is in the northwestern Namib Desert, near the coast, and covers an area of approximately 650 km². The highest point is 2573 m. It is a granitic intrusion. Many significant cave paintings are located on its cliffs.
The area is uninhabited and wild. It is very arid and finding water can be difficult or impossible. In summer temperatures over forty degrees Celsius are routine.
