Wolwedans Dune Camp

Wolwedans Dune Camp is positioned on the edge of a 250 metre high dune with magnificent views across the NamibRand Reserve. This down-to-earth camp offers guests the opportunity to do as much or as little as they wish.  Guests can embark on nature drives, sundowner drives, explore the area on e-bike, experience the desert through the eyes of a bushmen on a guided walk, or simply spend some time just unwinding and relaxing on your private deck in the Namib Desert, one of the quietest places on earth.

The NamibRand Reserve has been recognised as an International Dark Sky Reserve.   The International Dark-Sky Association’s night sky conservation efforts include working with groups to form International Dark Sky Reserves (IDSR) and other dark sky places. International Dark-Sky Association’s Executive Director Bob Parks explains, “The night sky over the NamibRand Nature Reserve is exceptional, as are the efforts the reserve has taken in modifying its lighting for the sake of its wildlife and visitors.”
