Erongo Wilderness Lodge 

Erongo Wilderness Lodge is an intimate, luxurious tented camp located within easy reach of Windhoek and is an ideal rest point to begin or round off a visit to this extraordinary country.
Set amidst granite boulders, with miles of breath taking scenery, the lodge has been built to blend in with it’s natural surroundings. Raised wooden walkways, natural stone and local materials have all been used to enhance the experience of this unique environment.
The area is a birding paradise and guests can enjoy nature drives or walks with one of the expert guides. If you are feeling energetic a walk to Paula’s Caves is well worth the time to see the ancient rock paintings.

Highly recommended for a 2 night stay to enjoy the lodge and the Erongo Mountain Nature Conservancy
