Andersson's Camp Highlights
Andersson's Camp is situated in the Ongava Reserve along the southern boundary of the Etosha National Park. The area contains Africa's largest saltpan and was 'discovered' by Sir Francis Galton and Charles Andersson in 1851, hence the camp takes its name from the famed Swedish explorer. Guests will have the opportunity to explore vast open plains abundant with wildlife in this pristine and unspoiled area.
- Ideally situated near to the Etosha Pan
- Eco-conscious lodge
- Waterhole which can be viewed from the camp
Andersson's Camp Game Viewing and Activities
No activities are offered on the Ongava Reserve in which the camp is located; however guests may either self-drive into Etosha National Park or book (at an extra cost) onto one of the camp's scheduled guided game drives into Etosha National Park. Another activity is relaxing beside the pool, or at the main area, from where there is a good chance of seeing animals coming to drink at the waterhole. Etosha is Namibia's best game viewing destination, where large herds of plains game concentrate around the waterholes in the dry season making for exciting wildlife viewing. Species that can be seen year round include elephant, lion, leopard, cheetah, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, springbok, oryx, kudu and the diminutive Damara dik-dik. Birdlife is also good with Ostrich and raptors in abundance. Local specials include the Short-toed Rock-Thrush, Hartlaub's Francolin, Rockrunner, White-tailed Shrike and Chestnut Weaver (summer).
