Andersson's Camp, Etosha, Namibia

Recommended

Andersson's Camp takes its name from Charles Andersson, the Swedish explorer who first 'discovered' the Etosha Panwith Sir Francis Galton in 1851. Set against the backdrop of the low Ondundozonanandana Mountains, Andersson's Camp is surrounded by scrub-covered plains and white calcrete soils harbouring good game concentrations.

This former farmstead has been tastefully rebuilt to modern-day standards. The old farmhouse now forms the main area of Andersson's Campwith 20 tents (16 twin-bedded and 2 family units) radiating outwards into the secluded mopane woodlands typical of the region. Tents are a clever mix of calcrete stone cladding, canvas and wood, with double-door entrances and a small veranda that is an extension of the elevated wooden decks on which the tents are constructed. The en-suite bathrooms continue the unique design. The family units comprise two tents connected by a raised boardwalk.

Andersson's Camp's close proximity to Etosha Pan is ideal for full-day self-drives or guided drives into theEtosha National Park to take in the plethora of game found here.

Etosha National Park is Namibia's premier wildlife destination. At almost the size of Switzerland it is certainly one of Africa's largest game parks. Large herds of plains game concentrate around the waterholes in the dry season, whilst the summer months' sporadic rainfall produces a profusion of new life - with pronking baby springbok and comical young wildebeest.

Etosha is the ideal park to discover on your own – an excellent road network (accessible by sedan) and good route maps make for a very different Africa experience. Alternatively one can undertake a guided trip into Etosha in an open 4X4 safari vehicle. The only prerequisites are a camera with loads of memory cards, binoculars and the patience to drive slowly over the plains of the park. Several productive waterholes and associated plains within the Park have their own character, and are all within striking distance of Andersson’s Camp.

Canvas-style tents raised on wooden decks with double doors to allow for pleasant views of the bush with covered small veranda. Each tent has natural stone en-suite bathroom facilities, with a unique open-air private shower. 

Andersson's Camp is a model of eco-sensitive lodging and provides an authentic, safe and down-to-earth experience for small groups, families and independent travellers to Etosha National Park. It is also easily accessible by road. Energy-saving initiatives include solar-heated water for showers, while throughout the camp most of the natural vegetation has been retained.
