You can have early entry to Sossusvlei, one of the most beautiful landscapes on Earth, through a private gate from Wilderness Kulala Desert Lodge. Walk through the 30-meter-deep Sesriem Canyon, where water has carved the rock for thousands of years.
Enjoy a peaceful walk along the Tsauchab River Trail near the camp. Seeing everything from above while taking a *hot-air balloon ride over this unusual landscape may be even more special.
At Wilderness Kulala Desert Lodge, you can expect many desert views and chances to see special animals that live in the desert. Climb one of the dunes for a fitness challenge, look for small desert animals, or take a photo with the strange, long-dead camelthorn trees at Dead Vlei.
Accommodation
The warm and simple Kulala Desert Lodge welcomes families, groups, and solo travelers with a friendly feeling that makes you feel at home. Each of the 21 rooms, made with canvas and thatch, has a flat rooftop that is perfect for sleeping under Namibia’s very clear night sky.
Cuisine
Tasty meals and relaxing dining are part of the Kulala experience. A hot-air balloon ride over the dunes can be followed by a champagne breakfast to begin the day. You can enjoy pizza by the pool or a quiet meal in a dry riverbed.
As the desert gets hot, stop for a gin and tonic. Later, share a traditional meal with new friends under the stars.
From Wilderness Kulala Desert Lodge, you can explore the quiet and special land on guided nature walks or drives. Watch for wild animals like a group of oryx moving quickly over the sand.
See which desert animals come to the waterhole while you relax at the camp’s living area, pool, or wide veranda.
