GUIDED NATURE DRIVES
Sitting seamlessly amid an outcrop of huge granite boulders in Namibia’s Damaraland, intimate Camp Kipwe feels totally at one with its surroundings.
Guided nature drives are a wonderful way to get up close with the area’s unique deserted adapted wildlife, but guests are also free to explore the short walking trails surrounding the property to learn more about the region’s unique plants and trees. Excursions to the magnificent rock engravings at Twyfelfontein, the multi-hued Burnt Mountain and the so-called Organ Pipes complete the experience. Return in the evening for a scenic sundowner, and to share stories around the fire pit.
NATURALLY STYLED ACCOMMODATION
The camp’s naturally styled accommodation comprises just nine rustic bungalows and one honeymoon suite with rounded walls, curved roofs, open-air bathrooms and private decks that look out over the endless plains. The thatched alfresco dining area and lounge also command stunning views, and there is a refreshing plunge pool nestled among the rocks. An eco-friendly camp with sustainability at its core, Kipwe’s sustainable practices range from utilising energy-saving bulbs to harvesting and replanting indigenous plants.
