In the local Herero language, Onguma means ‘the place you don’t want to leave’ which perfectly describes Forest Camp.
Onguma Forest Camp is nestled among tall trees in a lush riverine environment, complete with a waterhole that attracts all kinds of animals. As well as game drives and guided walking safaris, the Onkolo hide provides ample opportunities to observe wildlife. The camp is unfenced so many animals, including kudu, oryx, lion, cheetah and leopard are often seen wandering through the reserve. Over 300 bird species have been identified on the reserve.
Why we love Onguma Forest Camp
-
Onguma Forest Camp is unfenced, so any of the 30 different animal species they have on the reserve can wander by
-
On game drives, you may spot one of the endangered black rhinos that live here, protected by their anti-poaching team
-
The swimming pool has a viewing deck overlooking the waterhole, so you may spot wildlife even while you’re enjoying a swim
-
Employing people from the local Oshivelo community, they grow their own fresh produce on a 500-acre vegetable farm
Unique experiences
Walking safari at Onguma Nature Reserve
Immerse yourself in the Namibian wilderness with a guided walking safari on the Onguma Reserve. One of the experienced rangers will take you out early in the morning, when it’s cooler, for a leisurely stroll through the reserve. The idea is to learn about the smaller details of the bush that you skip past on a game drive. Your guide will point out everything from animal tracks to termite mounds and medicinal plants used by local communities.
Spend a night on the Dream Cruiser
Spend a night alone in the Namibian bush with the unique Dream Cruiser, a modified safari vehicle that has a full bathroom and sleeping deck. The cruiser is parked alongside an active waterhole in a secluded area of the Onguma Reserve, so you can watch the wildlife come and go and then fall asleep to the sounds of animal calls. It’s a very Instagrammable location. The deck cover is removable so you can stargaze in bed, soaking up views of sparkling constellations and on a clear night, the Milky Way.
Onguma Game Drive
Encounter Onguma’s diverse wildlife on game drives with experienced rangers. The reserve covers 34,000 hectares of Namibian landscape home to over 30 mammals and 300 bird species that roam freely. There's a healthy population of endangered black rhinos protected by a dedicated anti-poaching team. The team is funded by tourism, so when you stay here, your money goes back into protecting these precious animals.
Facilities
Meals are an important part of the Onguma experience and an African-fusion menu, accompanied by fine wines from the extensive cellar, is a wonderful experience when dining under the stars.
Between game activities, massages, facials, manicures and pedicures are available at the spa.
Visit the Onguma hide, join a game drive into Etosha Natiobal Park, take a guided bush walk or watch the sunset over the reserve.
Children over the age of 7 are welcome.
