Located near Namibia’s Fish River Canyon and many other main attractions the country offers is the area known as Gondwana. Gondwana is the home of the Kalahari, Sossusvlei, Etosha National Park, the Namib, Twyfelfontein and of course, Fish River Canyon. Each of these areas of the country offers guests a different look at Namibia as they all have their own unique characters that combine together to make this country what it is.
Determining what to see will depend on the individual as they explore this country. The central northern part of Namibia offers visitors the Etosha National Park. The park is filled with native animals such as elephant, rhino, zebra, giraffe, lion, leopard and antelope. It is the perfect place to enjoy a safari drive. The south of Namibia is where visitors can explore the many towering dunes of the desert or see the wild horses that roam the Namib. Fish River Canyon is a must for anyone that visits the country as is the Gondwana Four Desert Tour.
The Kalahari Farmhouse is located in Stampriet in the Auob River valley. It offers guests a very rural accommodation and includes a reception area and restaurant in the main farmhouse building. There is a small farm next to the resort that provides the restaurant with fresh produce.
Visitors who stay at the Kalahari Farmhouse can enjoy a wide variety of activities in the Kalahari Gondwana Park. They can enjoy a three hour guided morning drive or sundowner drives into the desert to enjoy some of the most spectacular views of the area. There are two to four hour hiking trails that visitors can enjoy and maps are available in the main lodge.
There are day trips to the village of Stampriet and Hardap Dam for guests who are looking for something other than the typical drives. Both are about 40 minutes from the resort. Guests who wish to remain at the lodge can enjoy the swimming pools.
