A lucky find along the Okavango River. Nestled in the vegetation close to the riverbank, the Hakusembe River Campsite offers four private oases from which to enjoy the abundance of the river. Each of the sites has its own bathroom facilities and can host eight people.
Explore this lush water world with family and friends. It's a short stroll to the lodge to sit on the wide wooden deck, sip on a drink and take a sunset cruise on the Hakusembe River Queen.
Unwind to the rhythm of the river and cherish the unspoiled Kavango character from around the crackling camp fire.
Important Notice: 11 March 2025 - We would like to inform all our guests with bookings at Hakusembe River Lodge that the water levels have significantly receded. The road to Hakusembe is now open. However, we will be keeping the larger group trucks parked at Mupini Health Centre' Parking for a little while longer.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this time. Should you have any questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to Hakusembe River Lodge emergency number +264 81 165 1239.
Please note: In the dry season between September and December, the rivers tend to hold so little water that boat trips are limited, with little or no access to the river channels. You are welcome to enquire about the boat cruise activities upon check-in. We make every effort to maintain the activity as long as water levels permit. The safety of our guests comes first.
