Kunene is Namibia’s wild north-west, taking in Etosha National Park’s eastern and western gates, the rugged mountains of Damaraland, and the remote Kaokoveld toward the Angolan border. Campsites here range from well-equipped lodges in Etosha gateway towns like Outjo and Kamanjab to community-run sites beside dry riverbeds where desert-adapted elephants pass through camp. It’s the region most associated with Namibia’s classic wildlife and rock-art imagery.
Directions: 24 km east of Kamanjab.
Activities: Cheetah feeding tours (tame and wild cheetahs), game drives, birdwatching, hiking (Stromatolites walk ~1 hour, Python Vines walk ~6 km).
