Desert Rhino Camp
- Damaraland, NamibiaDesert Rhino Camp lies amongst rolling, rocky hills of the 450 000-hectare Palmwag Concession.
Immersed in the African Mopani bush, Ongava Tented Camp is a natural extension of this wild, wonderful landscape.
Large, comfortable walk-in tents with views across to a prolific waterhole are evocative of this classic African safari. All meals are enjoyed in the thatched dining area where a pool area affords an intimate view of the waterhole. Share a drink and the sunset in the close company of lion, eland, waterbuck, kudu and other fascinating animals as part of your ultimate safari experience.
Soft air, crackling with bird song and a chorus of lion roars, this is just a small, spectacular part of the Ongava experience. Tracking rhinos on foot, game drives into the fabled Etosha National Park, nights spent around the fire, watching as some of the world's most illusive and endangered animals drink at at subtly lit waterholes. This is your chance to be immersed in the wild.
