Designed for desert wanderers, Wilderness Desert Rhino Camp offers an original, exclusive wilderness experience and the opportunity to see free-ranging desert-adapted black rhino. The desert plains are starkly scenic, and home to other unique species, from Hartmann’s zebra and giraffe, to the bizarre welwitschia plant.
Designed with the desert in mind, the palette, textures and wildlife of Damaraland’s extraordinary vistas are brought into the suite interiors.
With natural stone found on site reinforcing the camp’s connection to nature, Desert Rhino Camp evokes a real sense of place in this stark desert landscape.
Six suites with deep overhanging stretch fabric roof structures, interior tones of terracotta, sage, fern green and cream, and classic details of timber and leather, create a sheltered sanctuary within this breath-taking desert landscape.
Run in conjunction with Save the Rhino Trust Namibia, Wilderness Desert Rhino Camp offers rhino tracking by vehicle and on foot with experts from this conservation NGO.
