EPUPA FALLS lODGE – northwest on the Kunene River -northern border of Namibia

Camps are situated on the Kunene River on Namibia's border with Angola. Rustic and unpretentious there are no phones, television, or internet. Nonetheless, you’ll sleep comfortably in small cottages (Omarunga) or tents (Epupa Lodge) and take meals in the adjacent central lodge. Nomadic tribes of Himba are in the area. An escorted excursion to a village reveals their ways and habits. Rafting on the river is an option. Plains game, reptiles and small vertebrates are found in the area but its beauty is its remoteness and tranquility and the Epupa Falls. The 900-meter airstrip is challenging due to possible cross winds, high surrounding terrain and cattle and pedestrians on the airstrip. https://epupafallslodge.com/

 

CAPRIVI STRIP

This long finger of land in northern Namibia extends east for nearly 300 miles and borders Angola, Botswana and Zambia. Germany, the former colonial power in Namibia, sought a contiguous trade route between the Atlantic and Indian Oceans and won control of the land in negotiations with England in the late 1800’s. Germany lost its control of the entire area after World War I. The area is rich in wildlife and can provide good fishing in the Chobe and other rivers. Several modest lodges provide accommodation along its eastern end. The Caprivi Strip provides a convenient air route to the east towards Victoria Falls, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Botswana. Stops for Fuel and Customs and Immigration must be carefully planned.

 

ICHINGO CHOBE RIVER LODG – Eastern Caprivi Public airstrip

Watch huge herds of elephant crossing the Chobe River. It’s a spectacular sight not seen elsewhere. Your choice to stay on a riverboat or in chalets on land, each with its own balcony overlooking the River – or both! One of the few remaining owner-run lodges.
