{"product_id":"twyfelfontein-country-lodge","title":"Twyfelfontein Country Lodge","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwyfelfontein Country Lodge sits against the red sandstone mountains of Damaraland, Kunene, on the road to one of Southern Africa's largest concentrations of rock-art engravings — a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The lodge is built from natural stone with thatched roofs, and its colours track the sandstone closely enough that it reads as part of the hillside. Fifty-six rooms divide between two outlooks: half face the open plains of the Huab Valley and half face the mountains directly. Rooms on the mountain side have slightly more shelter from the wind and a little more distance from the main walkways. All rooms have ceiling fans, en-suite bathrooms, mosquito nets, and electronic safes. One luxury suite is built around existing rock features in the mountain itself, with a private pool, terrace, balcony, lounge, and king-size bed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe main activities run out from the lodge in most directions. A guided drive into the dry Aba-Huab River valley takes three and a half to four hours and follows desert-adapted elephant herds through acacia and welwitschia country, returning via dunes and dry riverbeds in time for a sundowner at Welwitschia Hill. A morning excursion visits the rock engravings, the dolerite columns of the Organ Pipes — formed by volcanic intrusion roughly one hundred and twenty million years ago — and Burnt Mountain. The Living Museum of the Damara offers a separate programme covering traditional blacksmithing, leather tanning, plant knowledge, and fire-making. Guided hiking trails go out before sunrise and before sunset; group size is capped at ten guests per guide. The lodge has a pool, restaurant, and bar on site, and the area is malaria-free.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wetu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43807254675515,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/6776\/2747\/files\/15634pool1rjpg_c5ff90bd-e727-41ac-b557-bfe5dfeddfeb.webp?v=1784336358","url":"https:\/\/plekify.com\/products\/twyfelfontein-country-lodge","provider":"Plekify","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
