Accommodation available at Epupa Camps

Safari-style Tents
Epupa Camp consists of nine luxury safari-style tents erected on stone platforms, each with two single beds and en-suite bathroom. All tents have electricity and mosquito netting and an outside, shaded balcony overlooking the tranquil Kunene River.

A minimum stay of two nights, ideally three, is recommended to fully benefit from everything the Epupa area has to offer. Our campsites combine the use of local material with pleasing attention to detail to allow for a most memorable stay in Namibia. Private ablution facilities are available, consisting of a shower with warm & cold water, flush toilets and two hand basins, a barbeque area and a sink for dishes.

Warm water is supplied by what in Namibia is called a ‘donkie’. This system is quite energy efficient as it only needs a few pieces of low quality wood to heat up the water. We use mostly fall-offs caused by the wind or age in combination with low quality wood to heat up the water. Our camping staff fire the 'donkies' every morning and late in the afternoon.

Where is Epupa Camp situated
Irrespective of whether you fly or drive, getting to Epupa is an experience in itself. A flight from Windhoek takes you past Etosha National Park and the striking Zebra Mountains before descending along the Kunene River. By road you will see the landscape gradually becoming wilder and more desolate. You will pass Himba villages, large herds of cattle or goats and Himba walking long distances. Watch out for wild animals that roam the region. You will find us about 800 m east of the Epupa Falls, approximately 180 km north west of Opuwo, through Okonguati on road DR3700
