Palmwag Lodge l Namibia l Scenic

Palmwag is a paradise on the Uniab River in northwest Damaraland – a destination with a difference, offering both a lovely lodge and impressive campsite. Waving palms whispering in the wind, spectacular surroundings which harbour the famous desert elephant, the rare black rhino, giraffe, zebra, gemsbok and many other wild animal species, sunsets to dream of – this is Palmwag, one of Namibia’s oldest and most popular tourist rendezvous.

Activities at Palmwag Lodge revolve around daily game drives in open 4x4s into the vast 450,000 hectare Palmwag Concession and its surprising array of arid-adapted wildlife. A trip to the nearby Ovahimba village is an option where guests can experience first hand the daily life of these desert nomads - who still live by their ancient cultural traditions and rituals. A series of guided nature walks for the intrepid is also on offer – these are very informative and highly recommended!

Palmwag’s most exciting offering is their Under Canvas Sleepouts – set off from camp in the morning with your guide and enjoy 4x4 nature drives and guided walks in this pristine region. Arrive at the sleepout location and help setting up camp – spend the evening by the campfire, enjoying a drink and a sumptuous meal whilst marvelling at the stillness and solitude around you. Enjoy a nature walk back to the lodge the following morning.
