The camp is situated on a 7 000 hectar property with wonderful desert scenery and offers close access to Sossusvlei but also offers privacy and exclusivity on private land. The property harbours vast desert plains and rugged mountains with views onto the dunes in the distance.
The camp has been built near the top of a mountain, using natural materials of rock, timber and thatch and provides a cool refuge from the desert.
Accommodation offered are in 9 bungalows built onto the side of the mountain. The rooms are superbly appointed and have charm and style that offers comfort and atmosphere. The en-suite bathrooms also have panoramic views overlooking the plains below and have both hot and cold running water, showers and flush loos. Each bungalow has its own plunge pool.
Activities
Sossusvlei Wilderness Camp
is situated 20 kilometres from Sesriem, the entrance to Sossusvlei - one of the most remarkable sites in the Namib-Naukluft Park and the Namib Desert. Huge towering dunes, said to be the highest in the world, rise dramatically over 1000 feet above the surrounding plains at Sossusvlei itself. The changing colours and the spectacle of lonely Oryx silhouetted against red dunes is one which visitors and photographers from around the world, come to savour and capture on film.
these center around early morning excursions in 4x4 vehicles to the magnificent Sossusvlei dunes and the "vlei" itself at the end of the Tsauchab River - a dry river bed that only flows in the years of exceptional rainfall. Breakfast is served under the spreading camelthorn acacias in Sossusvlei befor returning to the camp in midday via the nearby Sesriem Canyon. Afternoon activities are enjoyed on the property - taking in the desert scenery and its unique flora and fauna. This is not a game rich area due to the harsh environment. However, what game you see is interesting and dramatised by the contrast between the desert and magnificent animals like Springbok, Oryx and Ostrich who survive and eke out an existence in these arid conditions.
