Damaraland
Doro Nawas Camp is situated on a small, rocky outcrop in the ruggedly beautiful Damaraland area, with spectacular views of the Etendeka Mountains to the north and the red sandstone cliffs of Twyfelfontein (famous for its San rock engravings) to the south.
The unique lodge design allows for an unspoilt panoramic view of this diverse and dramatic landscape, which varies from tabletop outcrops, small canyons, dry riverbeds to savanna and grassland vistas. The magnificent terrain holds all the possibility for a sighting of the rare desert-adapted elephant while enjoying a nature drive or relaxing, viewing the stars from the rooftop of the main area or from your private unit veranda.
Activities include nature drives appreciating the spectacular views and desert scenery.
Wildlife viewing concentrates on the game found in the riverbed and along the valleys that sometimes fill with floodwater in the rainy season.
A highlight is the fascinating expedition to Twyfelfontein with its renowned San art engravings, and the largest collection of petroglyphs and prehistoric rock art in Africa.
Guests are housed in 16 chalets which combine natural stone and canvas walls with wood and glass doors, shaded by a thatch roof.
The design and decor blends into the surrounding scenery, with attention to comfort and luxury in these sometimes-abrasive semi-arid desert conditions.
Each unit consists of a bedroom that leads out to a veranda and outdoor shower.
