Mowani Mountain Camp
Namibia
Mowani Mountain Camp fits its thatched accommodation into the great granite boulders of Damaraland. Within the Uibasen-Twyfelfontein Community Conservancy, the camp takes its character from the rock formations and the open country stretching beyond them. The layout encourages time outdoors. A swimming pool is shaped into the surrounding boulders, while the lounge and dining room share wide views. These spaces make the landscape an immediate part of the stay, including the hours between excursions. Accommodation includes suites with private decks and more expansive living areas. The Mountain Suite offers its own lounge, outdoor bathing and private dining, giving couples or travellers celebrating an occasion a more secluded way to experience the camp. Mowani is particularly appealing for those who want Damaraland's geology to shape their accommodation as well as their sightseeing. Its modest scale and strong sense of place make it a natural pause on an overland journey through north-western Namibia.
