Doro Nawas Camp is situated in Namibia’s ruggedly beautiful Damaraland area. It is located in the valley of the dry Aba-Huab River with spectacular views of the Etendeka Mountains to the north and the red sandstone cliffs of Twyfelfontein (famous for its San rock engravings) to the south. This exciting new destination is a joint venture between Namibian investors, the local Doro Nawas community and Wilderness Safaris.
Guests are housed in 16 units with en-suite facilities. The design and décor blends into the surrounding scenery, with attention to comfort and luxury in these sometimes-abrasive semi-arid desert conditions. The beds are on wheels which allow them to be wheeled out easily onto the veranda for a night under the stars. The main area is made up of indoor and outdoor rooftop dining areas, residential pool area, bar, curio and small gallery and leads to a picturesque courtyard and staircase to the roof that allows for relaxing sundowners and stargazing. Enjoy wholesome meals in the dining room and in the evenings absorb the dazzling African skies from your rooftop terrace before settling down for the night.
The magnificent terrain holds all the possibility for a sighting of the rare desert-adapted elephant. Another highlight of the area is the fascinating expedition to Twyfelfontein with its renowned San art engravings, and the largest collection of petroglyphs - prehistoric rock art - in Africa.
Due to the fact that Doro Nawas is a joint venture with the local community it provides a wonderful opportunity to contribute to economic empowerment of the local community while enjoying a luxury safari experience.
