Camp Kipwe sits among ochre boulders in Damaraland, within the Uibasen-Twyfelfontein Community Conservancy, 122 kilometres north of Uis. The camp comprises nine round bungalows, one thatched suite, and two luxury suites, all built into the rock face with views across the valley. The bungalows are air-conditioned rondavels with twin beds, verandahs, and open-air bathrooms set among the rocks. Each has a solar geyser, safe, and tea facilities. The Kipwe Suite is an elevated thatched structure with a private lounge, satellite television, king-size bed, and an en-suite bathroom with a bath. The two luxury suites occupy the highest ground. Each holds a lounge, separate air-conditioned bedroom, en-suite bathroom, heated splash pool, and a deck overlooking uninterrupted valley views. A central lounge and dining room open onto a swimming pool carved from the boulders. The bar and boma host evening meals and special-occasion dinners for longer stays. Limited wireless internet reaches all rooms. Guided drives depart at 06h30 and run four to six hours, tracking desert elephants, springbok, and oryx. A waterhole expanded by the camp draws a herd of 18 elephants. Self-guided trails identify local flora. Birds gather at the lounge where water seeps from the rocks. The camp plants indigenous species harvested from surrounding land and recycles all refuse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- plk-tmpl-cb 2026-07-31T09:26:31.359Z --\u003e","brand":"Wetu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43805655498811,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/6776\/2747\/files\/10498campkipwe-bungalowlsuitejpg_3e71ad83-4e4c-4fdc-bed0-f58e6c89468e.webp?v=1784327579"},{"product_id":"twyfelfontein-country-lodge","title":"Twyfelfontein Country Lodge","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe lodge lies along a mountainside in Damaraland, above the Huab Valley and the dry Aba-Huab riverbed.

Ugab Game Farm \u0026amp; Lodge sits in the Ugab valley, 100 kilometres southwest of Outjo in Namibia's Kunene region. The property opened in August 2022 on a 9,800-hectare reserve holding more than 860 animals — white rhino, giraffe, sable, roan, eland, kudu, oryx, impala, springbok, and blue and golden wildebeest among them. Three resident white rhino — Fritz, Diana, and Julia — drink regularly at the lodge waterhole visible from the lounge, fire pit, and pool terrace. Eight rooms in total include two Standard Luxury, two Luxury Twin, two Superior Luxury, one Family Suite, and one Standard room. All furniture is genuine leather; all rooms have air conditioning, private bathrooms with rain showers, and tea-and-coffee stations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Superior Luxury rooms extend onto private terraces with two outdoor showers, a freestanding bathtub, and a boma for meals under stars. Beds can be moved outside on request. Game drives lasting three hours cross the reserve and descend into the dry Ugab riverbed; sundowners follow on a ridge above the valley. Guided walks on foot lead through a 500-hectare breeding camp before entering the Ugab riverbed and returning to the lodge. Excursions to San rock art sites — hunting scenes and abstract drawings over 2,100 years old — take roughly two hours. Bush braais unfold in the dry riverbed at midday. The pool includes a submerged Martini seat and surrounding loungers. Indoor dining seats 18; the outdoor terrace seats 14. Rifle-shooting courses cover long rifles, shotguns, and pistols. Scenic flights over the valley run 30 minutes and require advance booking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- plk-tmpl-cb 2026-07-31T09:26:51.543Z --\u003e","brand":"Wetu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43808383959099,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/6776\/2747\/files\/35200mg3038jpg_14a908ba-ef02-4d06-86f8-b22544a3d435.webp?v=1784344326"},{"product_id":"madisa-camp","title":"Madisa Camp","description":"\u003cp\u003eMadisa Camp sits among granite boulders on the Goantagab River in Damaraland, just off the D2612 road that leads to the Twyfelfontein rock-engraving site.
