Ohorongo

Love To Explore Rating: Premium 

Set in Damaraland, Ohorongo is surrounded by 40,000 hectares of pristine wilderness. Within the reserve there are two unique places to stay; the Tented Camp and Safari Lodge. Ohorongo Safari Lodge was originally built as the reserve’s homestead, the lodge features five en-suite bungalows that blend traditional Namibian aesthetics with modern comforts. Ohorongo Tented Camp, meanwhile, features five luxurious tented suites, each with a private terrace and ensuite bathroom. 

Strategically located between Etosha National Park and the Skeleton Coast, Ohorongo is an ideal stopover for travellers exploring Namibia's northern attractions, whether arriving by self-drive or via the lodge's airstrip.

The lush desert garden is the perfect place to relax, drawing an array of birdlife, while the pool provides somewhere for a refreshing dip. Dining at Ohorongo focuses on fresh, farm-to-table cuisine, inspired by local flavours.

Ohorongo provides a range of activities across the surrounding wilderness. Guided nature walks and game drives allow guests to explore the reserve's diverse flora and fauna. Guests can also accompany rangers on black rhino tracking excursions. Evening night drives offer potential sightings of African wildcats, genets, jackals, and owls, and Namibia's minimal light pollution makes for incredible stargazing.

At Love To Explore we would recommend the lodge for these unique selling points:

• Conservation ocussed  
• Family owned & operated 
• Boutique lodge & tented camp
