Ongava Lodge

Situated close to the top of a hill with wonderful views across the plains, Ongava Lodge is located in a private game reserve on the southern border of the Etosha National Park, only 15 minutes from the gate. This purpose built lodge offers luxury accommodation in thatched chalet style buildings.
The Ongava Game Reserve is one of the few places in Africa where guests have the opportunity to view Black and White Rhino, the reserve also has a healthy population of Lion as well as a large variety of plains game, and birds are superb.
Etosha National Park offers spectacular game viewing in the dry months, with large concentrations of Elephant, Zebra, Wildebeest, Oryx and Springbok

It is highly recommended for a 2 night stay to enjoy the Ongava Game Reserve as well as acting as a base for exploring Etosha National Park

Itinerary: 2 nights / 3 Days
