Ruacana Eha Lodge
The lodge is a natural gateway to the wonders of the Kaokoveld, Epupa Falls and the vibrant African culture of the northern regions of Namibia. The word ‘Eha’ describes a piece of jewellery worn by the Himba, but it also means ‘home’. All rooms are air-conditioned and have telephone and RV. Also available are 15 campsites and 6 traditional–style huts.
Omarunga Camp Epupa
Omarunga Camp Epupa is situated 180km North West of Opuwo.
On the banks of the Kunene River, only a short walk upstream from the spectacular Epupa Falls lies the Omarunga Camp. Hidden in the shade of the exotic Makalani palm trees, this little paradise is definitely on of Namibia’s most secluded getaways. Guests will be tempted to just relax and absorb the breath taking scenery of the mountains on the Angolan side of the river, or learn more about the culture of the very proud Himba people. Bird Watching and guided walks are also offered. Omarunga camp offers 10x luxury en suite tents all separately situated on the banks of the river. Furthermore 8 campsites with hot and cold showers are also available.
