Zebra River Lodge

Zebra River Lodge is an old original farmhouse, situated in 12 500 hectares of dramatic scenery, deep in the Tsaris Mountains of Southern Namibia. The present owners, Peter and Elke Young, took over the lodge in August 2009, and have carried out extensive renovations to bring the lodge up to modern-day standards without losing the charm, original features and atmosphere of the old farmhouse.

Solar water heaters make the most of the sun and the waterhole is attracting more and more animals and birds as they discover this permanent source of water in the desert. Let the warmth and our Namibian hospitality welcome you to a place of light and airy spaces on the slopes of the Zebra River Canyon in the Tsaris Mountains. Take home memories of homemade bread and delicious, farm-style comfort food complemented by an outstanding selection of South African wines. Experience summer dinners together under the cool verandah or nestle by the warm fireplace in winter.

Zebra River Canyon is a heaven for geologists, archaeologists, palaeontologists, hikers and birders, as well as for those who just want peace and quiet. We invite you to relax under an azure sky and to feast your senses on our tranquil surroundings. The area offers endless plateaus and deep canyons where guests can discover an abundance of birds and antelope or see the mountain zebras keeping watch over their territory.
