Accommodation Description
Epupa Falls Lodge Campsite offers a serene and eco-conscious camping experience along the banks of the Kunene River, adjacent to the breathtaking Epupa Falls. With six shaded campsites, four of which boast direct river views, guests can immerse themselves in the natural beauty of northern Namibia. Each campsite is equipped with a cement braai (fire pit), a wash basin with running water, and access to shared ablution facilities featuring hot showers and flushing toilets. The campsite's design emphasizes sustainability, utilizing local materials and solar power to minimize environmental impact. Guests can unwind at the lodge's swimming pool, dine at the on-site restaurant, or enjoy a drink at the bar, all while taking in panoramic views of the falls. The campsite's proximity to the Himba communities offers a unique cultural experience, allowing visitors to engage with one of Namibia's most iconic indigenous groups.
Setting Description

Epupa Falls Lodge falls under the Kunene Region or Kaokoland as it used to be called. A mountainous area with very little life for the traveler in a hurry.
On closer inspection, you will not only find the very interesting nomadic Himba, but also an incredibly wide range of plant and bird life.
The Epupa Falls remain the main attraction while the Himba people come a close second.
For the returning traveller, it is the isolation of the Epupa area that appeals.
