Country:  Namibia

Location: Damaraland

Style: Luxury Lodge

Doro Nawas Camp is located in the dry Aba-Huab River Valley, within the Doro !Nawas Conservancy in central Damaraland, and commands spectacular views of the Etendeka Mountains to the north and the red sandstone cliffs of Twyfelfontein in the south.  

The landscape varies from tabletop outcrops, small canyons and dry riverbeds, to savannah and grassland vistas.

Accommodation at Doro Nawas Camp consists of 16 units built in a mix of natural stone and canvas walls with wood and glass doors, shaded by a thatch roof.   Each unit is designed to blend into the surrounding scenery, and consists of a bedroom, en-suite bathroom (with outdoor shower) and a veranda for stargazing or sleep outs.

The main building of Doro Nawas Camp is perched on a sparse, rocky knoll and offers unspoilt panoramic views.   The main area is made up of indoor and outdoor dining areas, pool area, bar and local curio area.  

A staircase to the roof allows for relaxing sundowners and stargazing.  Doro Nawas Camp provides an excellent base for self-drive and fly-in guests.  

Activities revolve around extensive game drives and exploratory hikes.  

Wildlife viewing at Doro Nawas Camp concentrates on the game found in the riverbed and along the valleys that fill with floodwaters during particularly good rainy seasons.   There are no large concentrations of wildlife, but this arid environment is home to desert-adapted elephant, gemsbok, springbok and variety of other species such as bat-eared fox.

This includes the occasional glimpse of the endangered black rhino and cheetah.  

Birdlife is excellent with several Namibian endemics, such as Damara Hornbill, Carp's Tit and Rüpell's Korhaan.

In addition, a trip to the fascinating Twyfelfontein San art engravings is recommended.   Namibia's first World Heritage Site, Twyfelfontein has the largest collection of petroglyphs (prehistoric rock art) in Africa.   At the same site, the Damara Living Museum offers an opportunity to learn about the traditional culture of the Damara people.  

This combination of Africa past and present makes for a unique experience.
