The cave is visible quite a long way off from the Maltahöhe and Walvis Bay road and lies about 15km from the Oase Farmstead. It is about 80km north of Solitaire.
These extraordinary paintings are accessible by 4x4 vehicle and only with the owner's permission and visitors have to be accompanied with a private guide as the cave is on private land. The cave is reached by an easy climb up on the flank of the Rostock Mountain.
