Embrace Nature at Okahirongo River Camp

Getting There

• Car

  If you are driving from the town of Opuwo, head northwest on the C40 road. Continue for approximately 140 kilometers until you reach the intersection with the C35 road. Turn left onto the C35 and continue for about 60 kilometers. Keep an eye out for the signposts indicating the direction to Okahirongo River Camp as you approach the Marienfluss region. The last stretch to the camp may require a 4x4 vehicle due to rough terrain. Ensure you have enough fuel and supplies before setting out, as services are limited in this remote area.

• Public Transportation

  Take a bus or shared taxi from Opuwo to the nearest stop to the Marienfluss region. The drop-off point might be several kilometers away from Okahirongo River Camp. Once dropped off, you will need to arrange for a local taxi or a guided transfer service to take you directly to the camp. It is advisable to pre-book this service due to the remote location. Expect to pay around N$200 to N$500 for the transfer, depending on negotiation and distance.

• Guided Tour

  Consider booking a guided tour that includes transportation to Okahirongo River Camp. Many tour operators in Opuwo offer packages that include a 4x4 vehicle, accommodation, and meals. This is a convenient option if you are unfamiliar with the area or prefer not to drive yourself. Prices vary, so check with different operators for the best deal, but expect to pay between N$2,500 to N$5,000 per person for a comprehensive tour package.
