Onduli Ridge
The unusual, dry landscapes of this part of Namibia are harsh but beautiful in equal measures, and are characterised by huge red, dusty rock formations that feel as though they belong on another planet. It’s a quiet, peaceful place to stay run by a warm and welcoming local team who provide excellent guiding outside the lodge and outstanding hospitality and culinary experiences within it.
Wherever you are at Onduli Ridge, enjoying a sundowner cocktail, indulging in delicious food in the restaurant, lounging on your deck or by the pool, the views over the Damaraland plains are spectacular. What’s more, you’ll know that the contemporary curves and natural tones of the camp ensure that it sits sympathetically and beautifully into the landscape.
