Ongava Lodge, Namiba


Ongava Lodge is situated along the southern boundary of Etosha National Park in the privately-owned Ongava Game Reserve. From its beautiful vantage point overlooking a waterhole and the plains beyond, one can enjoy a plethora of game that arrives to drink. Its proximity to the National Park makes it the ideal base for exploring Etosha's kaleidoscope of wildlife.

Location

Ongava Lodge is approximately a 1hour 20 minute flight from Windhoek. The airstrip is located approximately 15 minutes drive from the camp

Highlights

  • Etosha National Park is one of Africa's largest game reserves. Lion, elephant (seasonal), gemsbok, springbok, black rhino, greater kudu and red hartebeest can be seen at numerous waterholes and fringing habitats. Apex predators like leopard, cheetah and spotted hyaena also occur in this area.
  • In addition, hides and walks with guides are enjoyed on the private reserve. Ongava has resident white and black rhino - one of the few private reserves in southern Africa - allowing guests staying at Ongava the unique opportunity to see both of these charismatic species.

Namibia Review

We learned so much and would love to return and see more of it. The landscape of the country is unlike anything I've ever seen before -- so...
