Waterberg Wilderness Lodge Waterberg

Waterberg was the site of one of the major turning points in Namibia's History. It was here, on the foothills, that the Herero people lost their last and greatest battle against the German Colonial forces at the beginning of the century. The buildings of Waterberg Wilderness Lodge lie sheltered in a long valley in the midst of the Waterberg massif. Built from red Waterberg sandstone they are nestled under enormous old trees.

Location
Waterberg Wilderness is situated on the D 2512 gravel road, 8 km north-east of Waterberg Plateau Park Resort.
The road runs east of Waterberg and is part of a less frequented, but very charming route to Grootfontein.
This delightful alternative to the tar road via Otjiwarongo turns from the B 1 tar road (Okahandja -Otjiwarongo) onto the C 22 tar road and the D 2512 / D 2612 gravel road to Rietfontein, and finally joins the tar road from Otjiwarongo to Grootfontein.
Flanked by the plateau of Waterberg you drive through the beautiful tree and shrub savannah scenery of the east, and ever so often you will spot game or guinea fowl at the roadside.
Usually the gravel road is quite suitable for a city car. During the months from October to April, however, when rain is more likely to occur, the road may be muddy in places after heavy downpours.
