About Madisa Camp

Madisa Camp is located in Namibia’s scenic Damaraland region, nestled along the Goantegab River just off the D2612 road leading to the famous Twyfelfontein World Heritage Site. The camp is tucked away between striking granite rock formations adorned with ancient Bushman paintings and lies along an active desert-adapted elephant route, offering guests a chance to witness these magnificent giants up close.

Madisa is an ideal base for travellers seeking comfort, exclusivity, and adventure in one of Namibia’s most captivating landscapes. From here, you can easily explore nearby attractions such as Twyfelfontein, Brandberg, the Petrified Forest, and more, before returning to Madisa for a relaxing afternoon swim and sundowner. Finishing an unforgettable night under a starlit sky.

It is an ideal setting for relaxed evenings around the fire, clear starry skies and the quiet of the desert.
