Spitskoppe Castle Maltahohe Namibia

We welcome you to our unique Guest Farm in the heart of Southern Namibia.

Spitskoppe is a typical southern Namibian farm, situated 63 km south of Maltahöhe on route to Helmeringhausen and Luderitzbucht.

This 12 000 ha ranch is situated on the Schwarzrand mountain range and abounds in wildlife. We take great pride in showing off our Kudu, Oryx, Springbok, Ostrich and Zebra on organized 4x4 farm tours.

It is an old historical German farm which was used as a heliopraphical relay station, between Helmeringhausen and Hoftmanskuppe near Mlatahöhe by the German Schutztruppe. The beacon can still be seen.

We are comfortable with Afrikaans and English speaking guests.
Our Guests will experience typical Namibian living - arrive as guests and depart as friends.

The farmstead is situated at the entrance of a dramatic mountain valley guarded by a cone shaped hill from which the farm derives its name. A tributary of the Haseweb River, that has it's origin in this valley, is flanked by a luxurious riverside forest, which houses a spectacular variety of bird life. A ground dam, 3 km from the farmstead, has bird-viewing facilities and can be reached either on foot or by car on a well-maintained gravel road.

This is a working farm and the visitor can get an indepth insight into goat, sheep and cattle farming. We are not far from Zebra Park, Sesriem Canyon and Sossusvlei. During school holidays, we cater for children (only visits). For the tourist wanting to sample the traditional flavour of Namibian farm life and hospitality, we are the ideal stop-over en route to Luderitzbucht.
