Damaraland Camp

Etched into the inland desert valleys of the Torra Conservancy sits Damaraland Camp – remote, unique and impressive.  It’s hard to imagine anything thriving in this barren, lunar-like landscape. And still, from desert-adapted lions, elephants and black rhino, to the local communities that call the Torra conservancy home, thrive they do. Beaming from ear-to-ear, locals greet you like long-lost friends. Every dinner is a star-studded event (the twinkling kind – no need to pack a tux) and every breakfast spread is a feast fit for gods.

The Damaraland Camp Experience

Damaraland Camp is in a secluded location in the Huab Valley where the river flows for only a brief time each year. While the focus of activity is on searching for unique desert-adapted wildlife, most notably elephants and black rhino, it’s also worth doing an excursion to the ancient rock art at Twyfelfontein.

Stuff we love

Lunar-like landscape

  • Listening to first-hand stories of the community’s apartheid struggle, over enamel mugs of hot, sweet tea.
  • Tracking critically endangered black rhinos across the vast ochre-tinted landscape.
  • The deafening stillness of the desert at night, ‘heard’ from the tucked-up warmth of a fluffy duvet.
