Description [ correction ]

Tsondab Valley is a private Nature Reserve of 170km2. Bordering the Namib Naukluft Park on two sides, the Reserve's varied landscape impresses with a combination of the red Namib dunes and typical African Camelthorn Savannah. Petrified (or 'fossilised') dunes, as ancient remains of the world's oldest desert, magnificently formed into our 50m-deep 'Secret Canyon', as well as our 'Blue Marble' Mountains, may also be explored on the property. Conveniently situated along the main tourist route C14 Walvis Bay - Sossusvlei, Tsondab Valley is not only an accommodation, but DESTINATION for nature friends & desert enthusiasts, especially photographers! Suitable especially for self-drivers and very small guided groups. 5 superb en-suite DBL bungalows with dune view & roof terrace offer the possibility to spend an unforgettable desert night under the stars. Excellent 3-course game dishes (set menu). Very private atmosphere with the opportunity to chat with the Namibian born owner. 3 natural campsites under acacia trees with dune view; 2 cave showers & 2 toilets; both with exclusive dune view! Rock table, wind protection, water tab. Max. amount of camping guests per night: 10 pax. Large swimming pool, also for camping guests. Our exciting package of activities includes guided Sunrise & Sundowner DUNE DRIVES; photo excursions, scenic flights (prebooking is essential) over the magnificent Kuiseb Canyon, Sossusvlei, Tsondabvlei & the Diamond Coast as well as self-guided walking & hiking in the vicinity of your accommodation. True desert beauty waiting to be revealed… (Nov-11).

Directions [ correction ]

Farm entry is situated 9km north of Solitaire on T-junction C14 - D1275 (Spreetshoogte road). From the entry gate drive another 18km (approx. 25 min.) through breathtaking desert landscape to the lodge and campsite. For your convenience we recommend a car with a bit of ground space (X-Trail, Condor, Minibus or similar) as the farm road has a few sandy and stony parts. But no 4x4 necessary!

“The campsite is a little way from the lodge, but campers may use facilities at the beautiful lodge as well as the huge pool. This is where the famous 'cave showers' are, each built in a cave in the rocky calcrete. A great experience!!” - Mietsie Visser, 2012/10/31
