Interesting historical facts about Otjiwa

Set amidst the unspoilt beauty of Namibia’s oldest game farm near garden town of Otjiwarongo in Namibia, Otjiwa Safari Lodge is the ultimate holiday destination for those in search of an authentic African experience that meets the very best in international tourism standards. True Namibian hospitality and personal service go without saying.

The ranch is a veritable treasure trove of African wildlife and boasts a variety of some 25 game species that freely roam its 12 000ha expanse of bushveld. Amongst these is one of the country’s largest herds of sable antelope, the precious white rhinoceros, roan antelope, as well as big herds of plains game. Renowned for its beautiful dams, Otjiwa is also home to rich bird life, amongst which the majestic African fish eagle.

* Eagle’s Rest units 1, 2 and 3 are all two-bedroom, one bathroom chalets with two single beds in each bedroom, thus sleeping four persons in total.

Three well-kept and spacious camping areas – all of which are ideal for larger groups or families – have their own fireplaces and washing areas. The sites are covered in clean river sand and a well-planned ablution area provides separate facilities for men and women.

Seven smaller, more private camp sites each offer their own fireplace and water supplies, as well as a smaller ablution area.

And rest assured, there is no need for off-road vehicles – all Otjiwa’s camp sites are easily accessible by regular vehicle.
