This semi-mobile camp is set up in the remote Huab Conservancy in northern Damaraland. Found on the banks of the Huab River, its green canvas tents sit amongst the shade of mopane thickets.
The area is remarkable for its population of desert-adapted black rhinos, which survive in spite of the harsh conditions.
Eight tents sit on raised platforms, all with en-suite flush toilets and bucket showers. Although comfortable, this simple camp remains true to the essence of mobile camping, blending seamlessly into its natural surroundings.
Available activities include tracking of desert-adapted elephants and rhinos, nature walks, scenic game drives and visits to the nearby Twyfelfontein petroglyphs.
Booked on an exclusive basis, Huab Under Canvas offers total seclusion and freedom to explore one of Damaraland’s most interesting ecosystems. The camp works closely with Save the Rhino, who has been instrumental in ensuring the survival of this dwindling population of desert-adapted rhinos.
Some of the wonderful places to stay that we frequently recommended.
Etendeka Mountain Camp is a permanent camp, situated in the foothills of the Grootberg, below the north-western escarpment of Namibia. This region is home to black rhino, desert elephant as well as Hartmann’s mountain zebra, oryx, giraffe and several bird species endemic to Namibia. Accommodation is in 10 walk-in shaded tents with twin beds, en-suite facilities which consist of a bucket shower, flush w.c. and wash basin with hot and cold running water. Each tent has its own veranda. There is a large open-sided dining tent with a bar. Activities include nature walks and scenic drives.
Camp Kipwe lies in the heart of Damaraland, ideally located a short drive from the local attractions in the area. The camp is nestled amongst an outcrop of giant granite boulders, a stone’s throw away from the dry Aba Huab riverbed where desert-adapted elephants often traverse.
Mowani Mountain Camp commands superb views over the ancient and rugged landscape of the Aba-Huab valley. The camp has been carefully designed to create the impression of an African village and the lodge itself is considered to be one of the finest in the Damaraland region of Namibia, which offers astounding desert scenery, fascinating geological formations and archaeological sites and an incomparable variety of desert flora and fauna.
