Okonjima Plains Camp sits within the Okonjima Nature Reserve, home to the AfriCat Foundation’s long-running big cat rehabilitation and research work, and one of the more reliable places in Namibia to see leopard, cheetah and brown hyena at close range.
Chalets set among the reserve’s plains, comfortably furnished with private verandas facing the surrounding bushveld.
Namibian and international dishes served communally, often with AfriCat researchers or guides sharing insight into ongoing carnivore projects.
Guided tracking of collared leopard and cheetah with AfriCat researchers, game drives, and visits to the foundation’s carnivore care centre.
Okonjima’s AfriCat-monitored population gives guests an unusually high likelihood of leopard and cheetah sightings, supported by decades of individual animal tracking data.
Tracking with AfriCat’s radio-collar telemetry dramatically increases the odds of a genuine wild leopard or cheetah sighting compared to standard game drives elsewhere.
AfriCat is one of Namibia’s most significant carnivore conservation organisations, and Okonjima’s tourism revenue directly funds its rehabilitation, research and community education programmes.
