Onguma Plains Camp

Lodges near Etosha National Park

Onguma Plains is a fort situated on Fischer's Pan, bordering on the Etosha Park in Namibia. At Plains Camp you will encounter friendly staff, massive raw walls, stunning stone clad features and a huge tower with the best views over Etosha and its pans.

This Fort blends a classical African feeling a touch of Morocco and India, this is epitomised in a selection of the most beautiful antique windows and doors. Inside the tall, cool, roughly plastered walls, a courtyard and a large water feature will refresh the senses. Across the courtyard is a spacious beautifully decorated lounge and open air dining room. A large wooden deck will leads outside, with scattered romantic seating spaces, in full view of the waterhole where many species of buck, giraffe, lion, zebra and birds come to drink.

Meals are served on either the viewing deck, at the outside dining area, around the lantern-lit pool at night, or inside the courtyard at the water feature.
