Kalahari Bush Breaks - Namibia

Experience the Kalahari Desert at a lodge near Gobabis

The Kalahari Desert is a vast sandveld region which extends over central and western Botswana into eastern Namibia and the Northern Cape. Although generally described as a desert, the typical Kalahari landscape is surprisingly well-vegetated. Kalahari Bush Breaks offers accommodation in this region.

Accommodation is either in the three-levelled thatched guest house complex or in safari style tents. All rooms in the guest house have en-suite facilities and are built around a central lapa area with an open fire, bar and kitchen facilities. It is also possible to camp in a roof top tent or car.

Each safari tent has an electrical point and light, and access to modern ablution facilities. Campers are welcome to eat breakfast and evening meals at the main complex. Bedding can be provided for safari tents.

Nearby is a waterhole attracting game and birds during the day, and floodlit by night. The waterhole is overlooked by the garden area which is shaded by worm-barkfalse-thorn trees.

Activities at Kalahari Bush Breaks include extended game and scenic drives in 4x4 vehicles, walks and game stalking through the veld illuminated by the bright African sun, or observing game from a safe distance. The Kalahari offers visitors the opportunity to see one of the last essentially intact ecosystems in Africa - as well as visiting a land where Bushmen once roamed. Add to that the open nature of the terrain, and you have fine wildlife viewing against a backdrop of high scenic drama.

There are no lakes here, no flowing rivers. Temperatures are extreme: there are summer highs of over 40°C, and winter lows reach a bone-chilling - 10°C. But this frequently arid and often barren-looking terrain, which has a great beauty of its own, is home to thousands of plants and animals which survive and reproduce century after century. Fascinating survival techniques abound in the hostile wilderness.

Around Kalahari Bush Breaks the unspoilt savannah stretch for miles.

Kalahari Bush breaks is very convenient for travellers self driving into Namibia from Botswana, and is also an exciting destination for travellers already in Namibia who want to experience the Kalahari Desert.
