Run by Rob and Marianne Field, Zebra River Lodge has established itself as one of the friendliest, most welcoming places in Namibia. Zebra River is situated in its own canyon in the Tsaris (aka Zaris) Mountains, approximately 90 kilometres from Sesriem. FACILITIES Marianne’s cooking is superb, and the atmosphere is very relaxed and unpretentious. Everyone sits around the large table for dinner, with both wine and conversation often lasting late into the evening. | No. of Bedrooms | Zebra River's five guestrooms lead off a wide veranda around the plunge-pool, with a green garden around. All have en suite shower and toilet, and plenty of space, apart from the ‘honeymoon’ suite which has a large stand-alone bath, a huge king-size bed, and even more space. | | Activities | If you are a walking or hiking enthusiast, there are plenty of opportunities here. Should this not be your cup of tea, then relaxing by the swimming pool may be your choice. Excursions are offered by car through the many gorges of the Tsaris mountains ending with an unforgettable sundowner. The Lodge can be used as a base for driving yourself to Sesriem or the Naukluft, but don’t ignore the lodge’s own area. There are several clear trails around the canyons, two of which lead up to freshwater springs. Whilst they are only a day’s hiking away, you can arrange to walk part of the way and have Rob drive you the rest. Rob leads 4WD trips to Sossusvlei. These last a full day, including a trip into the Dead Vlei, Sesriem Canyon and a picnic lunch. |
