The Wolwedans Collection, Windhoek

Description: The Wolwedans Collection

Once the hunting ground of the Spotted Hyena, Wolwedans takes its name from the African for "where the wolves dance". 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.

Their portfolio of camps provides ample opportunity to meet guests' different expectations and preferred levels of comfort - be it the rustic Dune Camp, the more elaborate Dunes Lodge or the Wolwedans Private Camp. No matter where you opt to stay, warmth and personalised service -embraced by a commitment to care for guest and nature alike.

The NamibRand Nature Reserve (Southern Africa's biggest privately owned reserve) originated as a dream of extending the desert frontiers by integrating a large number of former sheep farms and developing a sanctuary free of fences, so that once again the wildlife could roam their habitat unhindered, today NamibRand is synonymous with some of Namibia's - if not Africa's - most breathtaking locations.

Covering an area of some 200.000 hectares close to Sossusvlei, NamibRand is bordered by the Naukluft Park in the west and the impressive Nubib Mountain range in the East. Virtually all facets of the Namibia are represented here. Mountains plunging down into endless grassy plains, which are interspersed by red vegetated dunes, create a living tapestry of colours and shapes that make it a visual utopia for artists and photographers. Many types of game species found in the reserve and over a hundred species of birds have been recorded.

The main objective of NamibRand Nature Reserve is to conserve this beautiful land, and to invite nature lovers from all over the world to share in this dream. Every guest staying at Wolwedans contributes directly towards the conservation of NamibRand, as a fixed percentage of their revenue flows towards conservation. In the long run, such levies will make the reserve self-sustainable. However despite the tremendous potential for ongoing tourist developments they have decided that every bed, in theory, must be surrounded by 2000 hectares of wilderness - now and forever.
