A small gorge of angular rock columns near Twyfelfontein.
The Organ Pipes are a collection of angular dolerite columns in a small ravine near Twyfelfontein in Damaraland. They formed when molten rock cooled and cracked into these regular shapes, and they were later exposed as the river cut through the valley.
A short walk down into the gorge brings you among the columns, some of them several metres high. It is an easy stop on the same outing as Burnt Mountain and the rock engravings of Twyfelfontein.
