Situated
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. Although wildlife is not concentrated,
the camp is situated where the rare Desert Elephant roams, alongside Gemsbok
(Oryx), Springbok, Ostrich and other hardy desert animals. Rare succulent
plants somehow manage to eke out an existence in this harsh countryside.
Damaraland Camp accommodates guests in 9 comfortable tented rooms, with
en-suite facilities including flush toilets and showers with hot and cold
running water. The combined dining room and bar are under canvas, and an
open fire is enjoyed on calm evenings. A feature of the camp is the unique
rock pool. Activities throughout the area are in 4x4 vehicles, and on foot. |
