Camp Kipwe

Nine round bungalows tucked into a granite kopje — Twyfelfontein, Damaraland

Camp Kipwe is an intimate and remote bush lodge tucked into the granite boulders of the starkly beautiful Twyfelfontein region — home to many of Namibia’s most important ancient Bushman etchings.

Nine specially-designed round bungalows are air-conditioned and complete with an open-air bathroom and a private verandah with sweeping views over the surrounding landscape. The Kipwe Suite and two Luxury Suites perch atop the kopje with their own splash pools and salas.

Days are spent on guided nature walks, visiting the rock engravings and the mysterious Organ Pipes and Burnt Mountain — and tracking the elusive desert-adapted elephants on a special Elephant Nature Drive.
