The Lodge

Etosha Safari Lodge

Etosha Safari Lodge, part of the Gondwana Collection, sits on a hill 10 km south of Andersson Gate on the C38, with wide views over the mopane woodland towards Etosha National Park.

Its 65 rooms make a peaceful base for exploring the park. A drink on the deck as the sun goes down over the woodland is the way to end the day, and there is a pool, a bar and a restaurant.

The lodge runs guided half-day and full-day drives into Etosha and morning walks in the bush, or you can drive yourself into the park through Andersson Gate and on to Okaukuejo, Halali and Namutoni.
