Ongava Lodge sits on the private Ongava Game Reserve immediately south of Etosha National Park, giving guests both the reserve’s own excellent game viewing and easy access into Etosha’s famous pans, with a waterhole directly in front of the lodge.
Thatched chalets built from local stone, each with a private veranda, several overlooking the lodge’s own floodlit waterhole.
Namibian and international dishes served with waterhole views, often with wildlife visible from the dining area itself.
Game drives across the private reserve and into Etosha National Park, plus rhino tracking on foot with reserve rangers.
Ongava holds a genuine breeding population of both black and white rhino on private land, alongside lion, leopard and a wide range of plains game.
The lodge’s floodlit waterhole allows night photography of visiting wildlife directly from camp, without needing a vehicle after dark.
Ongava’s private reserve status has made it a significant contributor to Namibia’s black rhino conservation, with rhino tracking directly funding the reserve’s anti-poaching operations.
