About Palmwag Lodge

Between Namibia's secluded Kaokoland and the famed Skeleton Coast, Palmwag Lodge offers 22 modern rooms within one of Africa's last true wildernesses. Surrounded by swaying makalani palms and robust mopane trees, the lodge overlooks sweeping northern Damaraland landscape peppered with green euphorbias. This remote corner is home to the famous desert-adapted elephants that follow ephemeral rivers like arteries of life, plus abundant black rhino and lion. Join expert guides on rhino tracking expeditions, full-day Damaraland excursions, or under-canvas sleep-outs beneath star-filled skies. Two pools and an outdoor bar provide refreshing respite. Palmwag collaborates with local conservancies and Save the Rhino Trust, ensuring your stay directly supports conservation of this rich wild heritage.
