Kiwi Score Explained
Overview
In the Purros Conservancy of Kaokoland, the Okahirongo Elephant Lodge is one of Namibia's most remote destinations, where desert elephants, black rhinos, and lions thrive.
Wooden walkways connect the open-air sitting areas and pool to your adobe rondavel (cottage). Your rondavel features locally carved furnishings that exemplify the African culture and harmonize with the ochre-and-honey-toned decor. Your bathtub, in the large en suite, has been positioned to afford you spectacular views of the landscape.
And don't miss out on tracking the rare desert-adapted elephants (it's called the Elephant Lodge for a reason, after all). Lion tracking, with the Desert Lion Project, is also a must-do if you want to see the big cat.
For a different experience, try the hikes around the Hoarusib Valley. A visit to a nearby Himba village offers invaluable insight into the rigors of living in a desert environment.
