Kunene To Western Etosha National Park

We will slowly make our way eastwards along the Kunene River until we reach the Ruacana Falls. The waterfall is 120 meters (390 ft) high and 700 meters (2,300 ft) wide in full flood. It is among the largest waterfalls in Africa, both by volume and width. We will spend some time here depending on the water level.
From here we will make our way south until we reach the Galton gate of Etosha National Park. Undoubtedly one of the great parks of Africa, Etosha covers more than 22,300 km2 (8,620 sq mi) and is synonymous with big game and wide open spaces. The name Etosha actually means “great white place” referring to the massive (130km long and 50km wide) dry saline pan in the middle of the park, believed to have been formed over 100 million years ago.
We will stay in Dolomite Camp, a new camp in the western section of Etosha. Until a few years back this section was closed to the public and with the rolling dolomite hills offers a unique and completely different habitat to the rest of Etosha. After enjoying lunch at our lodge which is situated on top of a hill with wonderful views over the surrounding plains, we will do an afternoon game drive.
Because of the different habitat we will encounter species like Hartmann’s Mountain Zebra and Roan Antelope together with the general Etosha species. African Elephant, Lion, Gemsbok, Greater Kudu, Hartebeest and Burchell’s Zebra are present in good numbers in this section of Etosha.
