About Epupa Camp

Epupa Camp offers you a relaxing yet exhilarating few days of personalised service and excellent meals in the seclusion of a lush riverine wilderness of ana trees, wild figs, makalani palms and baobabs.

We are situated on the southern bank of the Kunene River, from which the Kunene Region in northwest Namibia takes its name. Epupa Falls, acclaimed by many international travel writers as a must-see destination, is about as far north as you can drive in Namibia.

Epupa Camp offers three accommodation types: tented rooms, self-catering tented campsites and traditional campsites, where you can enjoy do-it-yourself roughing it or caravan or rooftop camping.

The ten comfortable safari-style tents consist of eight twin tented rooms, one honeymoon tented room with a queen-sized bed and a four-bed family tented room, all with en suite bathrooms. The tents have electrical lights and mosquito netting on windows and doors. Shaded patios in front of the tents overlook the Kunene River.

Apart from our private island and swimming pool with a river view, our facilities include an outdoor bar with free Wi-Fi, a lounge with small library, and a dining room.

Accommodation Options

The Cottage

The Cottage is Epupa Camp’s most exclusive and romantic offering, perfectly positioned right on the banks of the Kunene River and set slightly apart from the main tented area for added privacy.

Designed as an intimate retreat, it features a king-size bed, stylish interiors, and a cosy, homely atmosphere that elevates the overall experience beyond a traditional safari tent.

Its secluded riverfront setting makes it the ideal honeymoon or couple’s escape, where guests can enjoy uninterrupted views, complete tranquillity, and the soothing sounds of the flowing river right from their doorstep.

Why guests love it?
Greater privacy, enhanced comfort, and a prime riverside location combine to create a more exclusive, romantic stay, making it the standout choice at Epupa Camp.

Tented Twin Rooms

Comfortable safari-style tents featuring twin beds, en-suite bathrooms, and mosquito netting. Each tent opens onto a shaded private patio overlooking the river, creating a tranquil space to unwind to the sound of flowing water.

Tented Double Room (Honeymoon Tent)

A more intimate option with a queen-size bed, ideal for couples. The private river-facing patio and secluded setting make this a romantic retreat immersed in nature.

Family Tented Room

Spacious and practical, this unit offers four beds and an en-suite bathroom with double basins, perfect for families or small groups seeking comfort while staying connected to the natural surroundings.

Camping - Self Catering

Set beneath shady indigenous trees along the banks of the Kunene River, the campsites at Epupa Camp offer a scenic and tranquil outdoor experience in a truly remote setting.

Each spacious, riverfront campsite is privately positioned and features its own ablution facilities, including a shower and toilet, as well as a fireplace and dishwashing area, ideal for guests who enjoy the freedom of self-catering while still having added comfort.

Electrical power points are available at every site, and the generous layout easily accommodates larger groups, vehicles, and off-road trailers.

Guests can enjoy uninterrupted views of the river, fall asleep to the sounds of flowing water and nocturnal wildlife, and gather around the fire under vast star-filled skies—creating an authentic and memorable Namibian camping experience.

Firewood and laundry services are available locally on request, adding a touch of convenience while maintaining the camp’s rustic charm.
