DAMARALAND CAMP ****
LocationIt is located on the northern face of the Huab River Valley and looking south toward the imposing Brandberg Mountains, Damaraland Camp offers its guests endless vistas.
Early morning mists generated by the clash between the icy Atlantic Ocean and the warm desert air of the Skeleton Coast, drift inland along the river sand canyon, providing sustenance to the flora and fauna of the region. This comfortable and friendly camp offers walks and drives in one of the best wilderness areas in Namibia.
Rare succulent plants somehow manage to eke out an existence in this harsh countryside. Huab River valley with vistas across stark plains, ancient valleys, and soaring peaks. The natural laws of food and water availability dictate the movement and cycles of the rare, endangered desert-adapted elephant and other species that have adapted to life in the desert. Two species of the Big Cats i.e. Lions and cheetahs occasionally move in and out of the area.
Facilities available:
The stone living area combines the dining room and pub and an open fire is enjoyed on calm evenings. There is a swimming pool next to the bar. A laundry service is also offered.
Accommodation available:
It has 10 tented rooms each with an en-suite bathroom including flush toilet and shower with hot and cold running water.

A feature of the camp is a stunning rock plunge pool tucked away in a mini gorge behind the camp. Dinner can be enjoyed beside a roaring fire in an open air "kraal" under a billion stars.
