The Ozondjou Trails Camp is situated close to the Ugab riverbed. Ozondjou is the Herero word for elephants and this is very fitting, as they are utilising a site close to the base camp of the Elephant Human Relations Aid (EHRA). The camp will not only benefit EHRA financially, but a portion of the income also goes to local farmers in the area.

Ozondjou has five twin tents. Each tent has twin beds, an en-suite shower, wash basin and flush toilet. The main area consists of a mess tent with lounge area, dining table, that leads out to an outside sitting area at the firepit with a view over the Ugab River..

Ozondjou Trails is accessible via the C35 road, which is the main road connecting Swakopmund and Twyfelfontein. It is about 4 km away of the main road in the beautiful Damaraland Region.

Of course the main purpose of a visit to this area is to find desert adapted elephants. However giraffe, zebra and oryx can also be found in and around the Ugab riverbed. Desert Lions and rhino are sometimes present as well.

Guided walks and scenic nature drives in the Brandberg area. Search for desert adapted elephants in the Ugab River with EHRA. Cultural visits of the lcoal community to gain insite of their daily business are offered on request.
