Lodge and camping at the Kwando

Surrounded by a water-rich landscape of river channels, floodplains and riverine forests, the lodge, part of the renowned Gondwana Collection, provides an ideal base for exploring the remarkable wilderness of Bwabwata National Park. Its location also makes it a popular stopover for travellers journeying between eastern Namibia and Victoria Falls.

A striking African-style entrance leads into a spacious restaurant with a high thatched roof and open sides, creating a relaxed atmosphere with views of the surrounding landscape.

In addition, Namushasha River Lodge offers four Camping2Go tents, providing a comfortable glamping experience for self-catering travellers. These permanently erected safari tents are set beneath shady trees and blend the freedom of camping with modern conveniences. Each tent accommodates up to four guests and features comfortable beds, a private bathroom with shower, and a spacious outdoor deck.

A braai area and fire pit create the perfect setting for relaxed evenings under the African sky.
Activities and tours at Namushasha River Lodge
Guests can enjoy boat cruises on the Kwando River in the morning or at sunset, offering excellent opportunities to observe a wide variety of birdlife and the region’s abundant wildlife. Another highlight is a guided game drive into Bwabwata National Park. These excursions often combine a short boat transfer with a safari drive, providing good chances to spot large mammals such as elephants, antelope, zebras and predators in their natural habitat. Fishing trips are also available and follow a catch-and-release policy to help preserve the river system’s fish populations.
