Ongava Lodge is situated on the private 30,000 hectare Ongava Game Reserve and shares a common border with Etosha National Park, Namibia`s premier game viewing park. The lodge offers the full Etosha experience while providing great accommodation and service, as well as the opportunity to take night drives and nature walks on the reserve, activities that are not allowed within Etosha. Ongava Lodge has ten chalets attractively built out of brick and thatch close to the top of a hill. All your comforts are taken care of. Each chalet has a private bathroom with flush toilet, a bath and a shower and are equipped with air-conditioning, tea and coffee making facilities, mosquito netting, and 220V electricity. The main lounge, pub and dining area is under thatch and is situated close to the top of the foothills of the Ondundozonanandana Range with wonderful views across the plains below. Outdoor dining under the stars with crystal clear skies is something never to be forgotten. There is a pool as well.
Etosha National Park is Namibia`s premier game viewing park. It is one of Africa`s largest parks and is nearly as large as the whole of Switzerland. It has good concentrations of elephant, lion, leopard, black rhino and all of Namibia`s plains game including springbok, gemsbok, and hartebeest. Ongava also has white and black rhino on the reserve so guests can experience a wonderful variety of animals during their stay. Birdlife around the waterholes is good, with ostrich, pygmy falcon and all the raptors in abundance. Some of the local specials include short-toed rock thrush, Hartlaub`s francolin, freckled nightjar and Meyer`s parrot. |
