DAMARALAND CAMP
Situated on the northern face of the Huab River Valley and looking south toward the imposing Brandberg Mountains, Damaraland Camp offers its guests endless vistas across stark plains, ancient valleys and soaring peaks. This comfortable and friendly camp offers walking and driving safaris in one of the best wilderness areas in Namibia. Early morning mists generated by the clash between the icy Atlantic Ocean and the warm desert air of the Skeleton Coast, drift inland along the river sand canyon, providing sustenance to the flora and fauna of the region.

CAMP DESCRIPTION
Damaraland Camp accommodates guests in 9 large “Meru-style” walk-in comfortable tented rooms, with en-suite facilities – including flush toilets and showers with hot and cold running water. The main living area combines the dining room, lounge and pub under canvas. An open campfire and outdoor “boma” are enjoyed during calm evenings. The camp boasts a natural rock swimming pool. A laundry service is also offered.
ACTIVITIES AND WILDLIFE
This comfortable and friendly camp offers walks and drives in one of the best wilderness areas in Namibia. Although wildlife is not concentrated, Damaraland Camp is situated where the rare Desert Elephant roams, alongside Black Rhinoceros, Gemsbok (Oryx), Kudu, Springbok, Ostrich and other hardy desert animals, while Lion and Cheetah move in and out of the area occasionally. Bird enthusiasts will delight in seeing Monteiro’s Hornbill, Carp’s Black Tit, Ruppells Korhaan and Ludwig’s Bustard. Rare succulent plants somehow manage to eke out an existence in this harsh countryside.
Activities include nature drives and walks. Stargazing is superb because of crystal-clear night skies. Activities throughout the area are in 4×4 vehicles and on foot. Mountain bikes are also available for guest use.
