In the heat, dust and stunning landscapes of Damaraland, there is a sanctuary – Mowani Mountain Camp. Dwarfed by massive ochre boulders, the camp is absorbed into the landscape, making it one with our shared history of life in this prehistoric land. Every soft curve or ragged edge frames the landscape in a different way, as if you are seeing for the first time, every time.

The word M’wane means “Place of God”, and here you’ll find the true meaning of the words – peace and tranquility. The 13 luxury thatched rooms and two suites, each with a deck, are elegantly decorated with furnishings especially designed for convenience and comfort. Guests can relax around a rock pool that has been skillfully carved out of the local stone, blending in perfectly with the natural surroundings.

Climb into an open-air vehicle and experience the rush of Africa. Mowani’s local guides share with their guests an intimate knowledge and respect for the land that they have built up over a lifetime. With new insight into local traditions, you will come to fully appreciate the geology, botany and wildlife of the area. Local villagers are welcoming and keen to share their experiences.

When you arrive at Mowani, your dreams might ask you to stay.
