12 Day N/a’an ku sê Etosha & Swakopmund

This enchanting reserve borders the Namib Naukluft Park with its breathtaking photogenic dune belt to the West and the Tiras Mountains to the East. Kanaan N/a’an ku sê Desert Retreat is situated on 33 000ha of unspoiled nature. Contrasting landscapes are never-ending, with rippled sand dunes glowing in the magical light of sunrise and sunset. Stay in one of our very exclusive en-suite Luxury Canvas Tents built on wooden decks overlooking a most striking and contrasting landscape. Enjoy gourmet meals and refreshing drinks in the new set dining area and daydream in the shade of the veranda overlooking the picturesque valley below. Kanaan is ideal for wildlife enthusiasts, photographers, geologists, hikers, or those looking to get away from it all.

In the dedicated hands of the N/a’an ku sê team, the Kanaan N/a’an ku sê Desert Retreat focuses on the rehabilitation of the land to serve a purpose other than being a photographer’s paradise - conservation and protection of the wildlife and environment.

A get-away for campers looking for a once-off experience at our campsite 707 situated amidst a most beautiful landscape. 8 sites looking upon the vast open planes towards the west include ablution facilities.

In an otherwise flat area Halali Campsite is perched between a few hills and koppies. Thicker vegetation makes this popular with leopard, rhino and elephant. Situated halfway between Namutoni and Okaukuejo, the Halali Campsite is centrally located in close proximity of some of the most popular waterholes of the Etosha National Park. A short walk will take you to the camp’s floodlit waterhole with excellent day and night game viewing.

‘Halali’ is the German word for the traditional ending of a hunt. The campsite signifies the end of game hunting and the rise of eco-tourism in Namibia. Halali offers active guests the largest pool in the park and its strategic location between Namutoni and Okaukuejo makes it a great stopover for lunch, ice cream, a cool drink or just petrol.
