Solitaire is a small settlement in the Khomas Region of central Namibia near the Namib-Naukluft National Park. It currently[update] features the only gasoline station, bakery, cafe, and the only general dealer between the dunes at Sossusvlei and the coast at Walvis Bay, as well as on the road to the capital Windhoek. Solitaire belongs to the Windhoek Rural electoral constituency.[1]
Solitaire is known in the Netherlands because of a book with the same name by Dutch author Ton van der Lee, dealing with his stay at the settlement.
