Wolwedans Dunes Lodge
NamibRand Nature Reserve1:45 from Sesriem
Nestled amidst the dunes in the heart of NamibRand Nature Reserve and set against a backdrop of unparalleled beauty, Wolwedans provides the perfect base from which to explore vast stretches of awe-inspiring nature.
Wolwedans Dunes Lodge is located in south western Namibia, in the heart of the NamibRand Nature Reserve and on the doorstep of Sossusvlei.
The camp is situated on the top of a vegetated dune belt offering fantastic vistas and panoramas. The building style is a blend of wooden structures and canvas blinds, opening up to the desert beyond.
Each of the 9 chalets has a verandah, overlooking vast stretches of untouched sand. Your roomy tented chalet rests on an elevated deck on top of a dune plateau and sleeps two adults comfortably in either a king-size bed or two twin beds. The en-suite bathroom consists of double vanity, shower and toilet facilities. A family room with two bedrooms is available.
