Doro Nawas Camp

Doro Nawas Camp

Nestled against a small hill overlooking ancient plains and the typical tabletop escarpment is Doro Nawas. The camp is situated in the rugged beauty of the Damaraland area, in the Doro Nawas Conservancy which has shareholdings in the camp and so this region benefits from safari stays here.

The unique design and lodge outline allows for an unspoilt panoramic view of this diverse and dramatic landscape that varies from tabletop outcrops, small canyons, dry riverbeds and savannah-filled vistas that have all the signs of possible elephant sighting while relaxing on a private veranda, or enjoying a 4x4 nature and game drive.

Accommodation at Doro Nawas Camp

Guests are housed in 16 natural walled units, the design and décor unique to the surrounding scenery, with attention to comfort and luxury in these semi-arid desert conditions. Each unit consists of a bedroom that leads onto a veranda for stargazing or sleep outs. The communal area includes indoor and outdoor dining areas, a swimming pool, bar and gallery exhibiting Namibian art.

Activities and wildlife safaris from Doro Nawas Camp

Activities include nature drives appreciating the spectacular views and desert scenery. Wildlife viewing concentrates on the game found in the riverbed and along the valleys that sometimes fill with floodwater in the rainy season.

A highlight is the fascinating expedition to the rock art site at Twyfelfontein with its renowned San art engravings and the largest collection of petroglyphs – prehistoric rock art – in Africa. Doro Nawas Camp provides an excellent base for exploring the local area in game drive vehicles and on foot, combining a luxury safari experience with economic empowerment for the local community.
