Discover Epako Safari Lodge

The word Epako is a Herero word meaning 'the corner in a mountain range'. Situated in the EPAKO private reserve, the lodge is nestled against a hillside overlooking the Epako River and surrounded by dense African bush. The area is home to a wide variety of mammals, including white rhino and leopard, and a host of birdlife.

The lodge has 10 rooms and suites all of which have their own terrace overlooking the gardens or Namibian bush. When you are not a game drive or walk, you can relax in the lodge’s spa, swimming pool, outside terrace or dining area, which overlooks a waterhole. You will enjoy meals inside or outside and be served a combination of Namibia and French cuisine with South African wines.
