What To Do at Desert Rhino Camp
Rhino Tracking
You will set out early on a game drive, enjoying the rugged scenery and
taking in the wildlife.
Trackers from the SRT are in radio contact with your guide and when they
find Rhino inform the guide of their location.
Generally you will be driven to within a kilometre of the Rhino's location
and then approach on foot so as not to disturb the animals. Generally you
will get within a few hundred meters of the Rhino (close enough for a good
view, but not so close as to disturb them).
Nature Drives & Night Drives
opportunities to learn about the fauna and flora of the area
This desert reserve has a number of fresh water springs that support healthy
populations of animals including desert adapted Back Rhino and Elephants as
well as large populations of the rare Hartmann's Mountain Zebra, Giraffe,
Oryx, Springbok and Kudu.
The predator population is the largest outside of the Etosha National Park
with over 100 Lions, Cheetah, Leopard, Brown and Spotted Hyaena.
Bird life is prolific and diverse with most of Namibia's endemics present.
Desert Rhino Camp is a joint venture between Wilderness Safaris and the "Save
the Rhino Trust" - a non-profit conservation organization that has been
working in this area for 20 years.
The Trust has been singly responsible for helping to ensure that these rare,
desert adapted black rhino survived the slaughter that went on throughout
other parts of Africa in the 80s and 90s.
Today this population of black rhino is growing in numbers and the area boasts
the largest concentration of rhino anywhere on the planet outside of a national
park.
Community game scouts who were employed by the Trust to help with the patrolling
and monitoring all these years are now seconded to the camp and are the trackers
and guides.
A portion of every guest’s revenue goes to the Trust.
Hire A Car For Your Trip
A road trip across Namibia is an experience you will cherish forever, the freedom to stop wherever you want and explore Namibia on your own terms, for that you will need to hire the right car.
