NAMUSHASHA RIVER CAMPSITE

Book Now Enquire
NAMUSHASHA RIVER CAMPSITE

Shaded by towering grandfather trees, Namushasha River Campsite located along the banks of the Kwando River, offers six camping spots, each accommodating 6 guests. Each site is equipped to provide a comfortable stay, blending the charm of the great outdoors with essential amenities to ensure each guest has an authentic ‘bundu’ experience worth remembering.

The campsite is a gateway to the breathtaking Bwabwata National Park in the Zambezi Region. After an exhilarating guided excursion into the park, return to your riverside retreat to unwind. Gather around a crackling fire with friends and family, sharing stories under the stars while the gentle murmur of the river soothes your spirit.

Campers are invited to indulge in the facilities of the neighbouring Namushasha River Lodge. Take a refreshing dip in the sparkling swimming pool or treat your taste buds to a delectable meal at the lodge’s restaurant, just a short walk away. The riverscape, adorned with water lilies and reeds, offers a perfect backdrop for relaxation and exploration.

Whether basking in nature’s stillness or embarking on a thrilling safari, Namushasha River Campsite promises an unforgettable Namibian adventure.

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.
