Ongava
Tented Camp is situated along the southern boundary
of Etosha National Park in the 30 000 hectare, privately
owned Ongava Game Reserve. The small tented camp is
built in a different sector of the reserve to Ongava
Lodge.
Accommodation
comprises seven large comfortable walk-in tents (but
can be sold as eight tents if required), each with
en-suite facilities, including flush toilet and a
hot shower. All meals are enjoyed in the thatched
dining area that overlooks an active waterhole. Two
additional twin tents were added in July 2004. The
camp also has a small pool.
Activities include game drives into the Okaukuejo
area of Etosha where Lion, Elephant, Cheetah, Gemsbok,
Springbok, and Hartebeest can be seen at many of the
waterholes in the Park.
In
addition, night drives, hides and walks are offered
on the private reserve. Ongava has resident White
Rhino and Black Rhino, allowing guests staying at
Ongava the opportunity to see both species.
