Palmwag Lodge – Damaraland’s Hidden Oasis
Nestled between Namibia’s rugged Kaokoland and the haunting Skeleton Coast, Palmwag Lodge is a verdant oasis in Damaraland’s dramatic expanse. With makalani palms swaying above mopane trees nourished by underground springs, this peaceful destination provides a soulful sanctuary in one of Africa’s last true wildernesses.
Location
Set beside the ethereal Uniab River, surrounded by basalt mountains and charged with wildlife, Palmwag Lodge is a rare launchpad for desert discovery. It lies deep within the 582,000-hectare Palmwag Conservancy—a haven for desert-adapted elephants, black rhinoceros, lions, and more.
The Lodge
With around 22–32 fresh, modern rooms—including thatched bungalows, comfy tents, and family units—Palmwag blends comfort with authenticity. Thoughtfully renovated, the lodge features hospitality essentials like a pool bar, restaurant, secure parking, and convenient airstrip access.
Activities
This is the desert as adventure: guided rhino-tracking on foot, expansive nature drives, immersive walks, sleep-outs, and sundowner drives across the boundless concession landscape—all under a sky that outshines any city lights.
Community & Conservation
Palmwag is deeply rooted in conservation—working closely with neighbouring conservancies, the Ministry of Environment, Forestry and Tourism, and the Save the Rhino Trust to protect Namibia’s natural heritage. Your stay becomes a meaningful act for wilderness preservation and local stewardship.
