The Konkiep is an ephemeral dry river ( Rivier ) in the southwest of Namibia . It rises in the Hardap region on the Schwarzrand and flows into the Fish River in the ǁKaras region . A tributary of the Konkiep is the Gurieb , which rises on the plateau of the Schwarzrand and flows into the Konkiep at 27 ° 00'52 "N 017 ° 17'25" E.
