Camp Kipwe
Twyfelfontein
Accommodation
The nine bungalows at Camp Kipwe are inspired by the granite boulders scattered about them, and blend in perfectly with their rocky environment. Made of clay and stone, the walls exude a comfortable, organic feel. The adjacent open-air bathrooms are creatively integrated into the rock face, and despite their exposed nature offer absolute privacy.
All bungalows have a veranda where you can sit outside and reflect on the day. Some of the rooms have also been extended with a canopy under which there is a dome tent with space for two children. Alternatively, these beds can be placed in the room if the parents prefer.
In addition to its nine bungalows, the lodge also offers the Kipwe Suite equipped with additional lounge and bathtub with spectacular view and two Luxury Suites with extended deck, private plunge pool and outdoor sala.
Location
Camp Kipwe is situated close to Twyfelfontein in Damaraland. The camp is built atop a hill amidst a boulder landscape. The surrounding area is as beautiful as it is diverse. The camp is accessed via the D2612 or by light aircraft via Twyfelfontein Airstrip.
Activities
Guided nature drives and guided walks are available. With luck, guests will also encounter desert elephant in their natural environment, particularly prevalent in the Huab River Valley.
The ancient rock engravings at Twyfelfontein are well worth a visit. Home to 2500 rock engravings and paintings, Twyfelfontein was added to the World Heritage Site list in 2007. Guests can also visit the organ pipes, which were created 150 million years ago when liquid lava was pushed into a shale rock formation and then made visible again by erosion and the passing of time.
Good to know
Guests can climb the highest rock to enjoy a spectacular evening sunset.
