Etosha – Onkoshi Camp

Some 35 km north of Namutoni in Etosha is a special lodge – Onkoshi Camp. It was built in 2008 and from the beginning you were not allowed to drive there yourself. Today you may drive but a good 4WD is required. (During my visit there was work in progress so maybe we will see a Bentley there soon?) Onkoshi01

After our Tsumeb-visit we managed to reach Onkoshi just in time for a sunset over the Etosha Pan…Onkoshi02

..a sundowner…Onkoshi03

..and a sun going down!Onkoshi04

Soon stars replaced the sun…Onkoshi05

…and it was dinner time. The Onkoshi has the ambition of being a “luxury lodge” but even if the kitchen does not manage to live up to its ambitions we had a nice evening.Onkoshi06

On each side of the restaurant are 8 chalets on stilts…Onkoshi07

…and the view over the Pan with the African night sky was magnificent.Onkoshi08

Goodnight clever little gymnast!Onkoshi09

Not too bad waking up to this sight.Onkoshi10

A visit in summer-time may be nice…Onkoshi11

…and the view over the Pan is there all year round!
