Namutoni

Namutoni in Etosha National Park

Not since 1904, when the original building was restored after being burned to the ground, has the old fort at Namutoni seen such action. A total refurbishment, undertaken by Namibia Wildlife Resorts, is under way and the plans are big. Namutoni is on the eastern edge of Etosha pan and near the Von Lindequist Gate. Like the other two camps inside the park – Okaukuejo and Halali – Namutoni overlooks a floodlit waterhole.

Unlike the other two camps, Namutoni is built around a restored fort, which is to become the social centre of the new lodge with restaurants, a bar and lounge, and a game viewing deck. Accommodation consists of en suite chalets and air conditioning is provided in each of the 44 units. The main complex houses the restaurants, bar, curio shop, jewellers, bookstore, and all-important swimming pool.

Namutoni: game viewing in Etosha National Park

New to the Etosha National Park are guided night drives – an exciting way to experience the nocturnal wildlife of Africa. Guided game drives during the day take you to numerous waterholes along the edge of Etosha and Fischer's Pans in search of the great parks many species of wildlife including elephant, lion, cheetah, leopard, and scores of plains species. Birdwatching is also excellent particularly for raptors. The waterhole at the lodge is shielded by a low wall behind which you can sit all day and watch the gentle parade of Africa's wild animals.
