Perched on the rim of the Grootberg Plateau, the Grootberg Lodge stands sentinel over the Klip River Valley. It’s 11 rock and thatch chalets gaze out over the gorge, where Black Eagles hunt just below the level of your private deck. 12 000 hectares have been set aside by the Khoadi /Hoas community for conservation and tourism and it is through this pristine wilderness that you meander either on foot or by car to encounter the inhabitants of this remote biosphere, it is the first middle-market establishment in the country that is 100% owned by the conservancy. Desert elephant, Black Rhino and Lion are some of the more impressive mammals to be found, but not to be outdone you’ll find a myriad of smaller mammals, birds, reptiles, insects and plants. For travelers making the journey between Etosha and Swakopmund, this lodge provides the ideal midway stopover, whilst allowing guests to experience the true wilderness that is Damaraland.
