A pristine and wild location in the spectacular Erongo Mountain Hills
After a dusty drive in the heat of the day, you will arrive at the Erongo Wild. Set in a secluded valley encircled by the stunning Erongo Mountains, this piece of wilderness is a magical place where the desert, mountain, and bushveld ecosystems combine.
Resting atop the granite boulders, the lodge is built from the natural stone of the area with a sprawling thatch roof. Raised wooden walkways and stone steps, hewn from the granite of the ancient volcano, connect the main lodge to the luxurious tented chalets, which are perched on stilts between giant boulders.
You will be welcomed into the cool haven of the lodge with refreshing drinks and warm cloths to ease the travels away. Choose to unpack and rest immediately in your chalet, or have a drink at the bar, an old mokoro (dugout canoe) that you can still find used today on their rivers. You can relax on the welcoming sofas in the lounge, with a book from their shelf, or sit on one of the two decks to absorb the view of this arid paradise as the light plays across the boulders. There is a small sparkling pool to take a dip in during the heat of the day, while you watch the abundant birdlife.
In winter, when temperatures plummet, you can choose to sit by a roaring fire inside the central fireplace, or by a firepit outside to warm you while watching for game at the waterhole.
A delicious menu is served in our restaurant three times a day, and they ask that you kindly inform us of any dietary requirements in order for us to prepare dishes to your satisfaction. Set overlooking the waterhole, you can enjoy the game and birdlife that come to drink while you eat or have a drink.
While enjoying the main lodge as the shared area, you can retreat to your chalet and enjoy the expanses peeking out between the mighty boulders. Each chalet boasts its own deck for you to enjoy the surroundings from, as well as luxury furnishings inside and open-air bathrooms.
