Epupa Camp

Our visit to Epupa Camp was a memorable experience. The stunning location along the Kunene River, near the Epupa Falls, offered breathtaking views and a peaceful atmosphere. The staff were welcoming and helpful, and the accommodations were clean and comfortable. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience the natural beauty and culture of northern Namibia. Thank you Epupa Camp!

Merveilleux campement au bord de la rivière Kunene. Emplacement immense avec sdb privée et coin cuisine. Électricité restreinte. Deux piscines avec bar et terrasse panoramique sur les crocodiles et varans. Les hippo ont disparu. Bon restaurant avec coucher du soleil sur la rivière. Bon wifi. Personnel bienveillant. Morning walk tres interessant. Accès a 20 mn a pied des chutes. Tres bien entretenu ! Une famille de singe Velvet habite le campsite et...vole absolument tout !

Magnifieke plaats in Namibië, moeilijk te begrijpen dat het niet op het traject staat van meer toeristen. De weg ernaartoe was helemaal niet zo 'sportief' als we vreesden, op een dikke 3 uur rijden stonden we van Opuwo in Epupa (wel in het droge seizoen). Zeer mooi aangelegde camp site. We sliepen in safari tenten die erg verzorgd waren door het zeer vriendelijke personeel. Het zwembadje is niet zo groot, maar door de temperatuur was het ongeveer het eerste in Namibië waar onze kinderen comfortabel een uur in konden spelen.

Sono stata in questo camping col mio ragazzo un mese fa e devo dire che siamo rimasti spiazzati per diversi motivi. Premessa: noi siamo assolutamente volenterosi e adattabili 😂 Innanzitutto è stato difficile trovarlo: bisogna attraversare con la propria macchina un villaggio Himba, quindi schivare i bambini e le pecore e cercare di non forare perché la strada è PIENA di sassi enormi. Per quanto riguarda la location, direi molto suggestiva, sulla riva del fiume Kunene da cui si può vedere un tramonto spettacolare! Inoltre è comodo per il view point delle Epupa Falls (10 minuti a piedi). Inoltre abbiamo avuto la fortuna di vedere ancora animaletti tipo scimmiette, il varano e anche il coccodrillo!!! 🥰 Tuttavia, per essere d'aiuto a chi vorrà venire, devo essere onesta e dire che i contro erano più dei pro. Il bagno era privato (cosa ottima!) ma consisteva in una doccia e wc circondate da Bamboo, quindi assolutamente ZERO PRIVACY e un freddo terrificante la sera, Anche considerando che alle 17 staccano l'elettricità (meno male esistono i caricabatterie portatili) per cui abbiamo usato le nostre torce per vedere qualcosa😂 per noi cmq questo non è stato un problema, anzi cercavamo l'avventura. La cosa peggiore erano le noci di cocco che continuavano a cadere, col rischio di trovarsi con la testa rotta: questa cosa è stata fonte di ansia per due giorni e sono arrivata alla fine del soggiorno completamente sfinita e non vedevo l'ora di andarmene! C'è un bar molto carino vista Kunene in cui non siamo andati. Il wifi non funziona.

We stayed in really cool waterfront rustic treehouses right at the top of Epupa falls. The fronts were open to the falls and it was beautiful. We were able to walk out of the camp and to an area where it was safe to take a dip above the falls which was fun. The rooms are very cool but rustic with the beds with mosquito nets. I didn’t sleep well-the locks on the interior are possibly reachable by someone who has come up the stairs so I didn’t feel secure (I was staying alone) and the falls are really loud. Great fun bar, again with great falls view. I’m very glad we stayed there, but also one night was fine.

We camped here and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The ablusion areas are just too lovely - simple, clean but under the stars. The staff were so helpful and friendly and couldn't do enough for us. The pool was divine to relax in and the beers were cold. What more could we ask for. The bridge had recently been washed away but I think that would have been very interesting to have done. There were monkeys in the campsite but they didn't bother us. They also did have some pigs who were so cute but also didn't bother us. We also got to know Jaoa who does tours of the tribes and just is so interesting and lovely to chat to. Ask at reception for him and you will not be disappointed.
