Location and Access

Ohorongo Tented Camp sits near Khorixas, Kamanjab and Outjo in the Khorixas Area, positioned along routes travellers use to move between Damaraland/Kaokoland and Etosha’s western side. The page doesn’t list an exact distance to any single town, so it’s worth confirming directions with the camp directly.

Best Suited For

Hikers and self-drive travellers wanting a relaxed stopover with pool access will feel at home here, particularly those routing between Damaraland and Etosha rather than staying centrally at one base for their whole trip.

Practical Considerations

Breakfast options include à la carte, Full English/Irish and vegetarian choices. Free private parking is provided, useful for self-drive guests, and nearby hiking trails give an easy way to explore the surrounding area on foot. The Self-Drive Safari Namibia guide is a useful reference for planning this part of the route.

Nearby Alternatives

Other options in the Khorixas area include Twyfelfontein Adventure Camp, Vingerklip Lodge, Ozondjou Trails and Ugab Game Farm & Lodge.

Location and Region

Ohorongo Tented Camp sits in the Khorixas area of the Kunene Region, within reach of Kamanjab and Outjo, all common overnight stops for travellers touring Damaraland and Etosha National Park. Damaraland is known for its rugged mountains, dry riverbeds and dolerite outcrops, and this stretch of road connects several key attractions including Twyfelfontein and the Petrified Forest. Self-drive guests should confirm the final approach road with the camp, as conditions on gravel roads in this region can change after rain.

Getting There

The camp is reached via the district roads linking Khorixas, Kamanjab and Outjo, a triangle of small towns that serve as fuel and supply points for this part of the self-drive circuit. Guests travelling from the coast typically approach via Khorixas, while those coming from Etosha’s western side often route through Kamanjab. As with most tented camps in this region, facilities are simpler than at larger lodges, so guests should confirm what to bring, particularly for self-catering stays, before arrival.

Guests planning a wider circuit through Damaraland and onward to Etosha may find it useful to sequence stops so that fuel and supplies are topped up at each of these towns along the way.
