“The Khaudum National Park was established with conservation in mind, and not for cash generation. This simple guiding characteristic gave birth to the true wilderness feel that embraces one’s soul when visiting the park. It is wild, and we want to keep it like that”
Hidden away in Namibia’s north-eastern Kavango Region, the Khaudum National Park is not to be taken lightly. It could be described as Namibia’s ‘forgotten wilderness’. The Khaudum is home to large herds of elephants and the African wild dog (Africa’s most endangered large predator). Only the border with Botswana and a 55km section of the western border of the park are fenced in the Kahudum. This open-park system ensures that wildlife can pursue hereditary migratory routes to and from the water-rich Kavango River and floodplains, including the Okavango Delta, a mere 150km from the park boundary. Thus wildlife migratory routes link Namibia, Botswana and Angola under a protective legislative coat. It also protects the Northern Kalahari Sandveld Biome.
This camp is situated closest to Tsumkwe (approximately 60 km), at the southern end of the Khaudum Game Reserve.
