Nature First at Ongava
Ongava – Herero for rhino – was founded in 1993 with
a single lodge, Ongava Game Lodge. In the intervening years our commitment to
sustainable conservation enabled us to add Ongava Tented Camp, Little Ongava
and Andersson’s Camp
From the outset Ongava committed to ‘Nature First’, striving
to restore biodiversity and ensuring that natural processes are perpetuated.
Sharing a common boundary with Etosha National Park, Ongava is considered one
of the finest private game reserves in the region, enjoying global recognition
for exceptional conservation and exciting safari experiences.
To have achieved this in a sustainable manner
provides us enormous satisfaction.
The apex predator of the African savannah lords
supreme at Ongava, the pride’s roaring reverberating deep into the African
night transmitting shivers of ancient fear through the restless herds.
Our flagship, Little Ongava, is idyllically
perched on a rocky outcrop with panoramic vistas of the African savannah. Quite
possibly Namibia’s most luxurious safari destination, Little Ongava has only
three spacious units, offering an exclusive experience. Each sumptuous unit
features its own plunge pool, a sala, en-suite bathroom with both indoor and
outdoor showers and a bath that takes in those breathtaking views.
From the impressive vantage point of the dining and
lounge areas, this magnificent setting lends itself to relaxed, stylish dining
under the African skies.
Ongava
Game Lodge overlooks a waterhole frequented by thirsty wildlife.
Choose from fourteen luxurious air-conditioned thatch lodges with viewing decks
overlooking the plains.
Nestled
in a hidden valley Ongava Tented Camp
has eight large walk-in tents. Meals are taken at the thatched dining area
overlooking the popular waterhole.
The
family friendly Andersson’s Camp,
with eighteen Guest tents and two family units, features an easily accessible
underground photographic hide.
Activities
revolve around exploring the 30,000-hectare private game reserve on guided drives,
nature walks with experienced guides and visits to Etosha.
Our
founding principle – Nature First – continues as our mantra. We’re honoured to
contribute to sustainable conservation, groundbreaking wildlife research and to
be one of the few private game reserves in Africa where there is a chance of
seeing both black and white rhino.
