Whilst enjoying the impressive sunrise and sunsets from the balcony of your Bungalow, you allow yourself to once again come into contact with endless tranquility and peace of mind. Once you have experience our wild life in their natural habitat, you will understand why we believe that when you visit our lodge, you must be very close to heaven....

Namibia is the country to begin your African journey. The daily life is very European, but when in nature, you realize that you are away from the fast lane of life.
The food and drinks, as well as the experience to sit next to an open fire and smell that Steak, or Oryx, sizzling on the coals, are palatable to European standards.

Accommodation Ugab Terrace Lodge

Bungalows The sixteen carefully furnished bungalows, all with shower, W.C. and verandah, are situated on a terrace and allow the visitor a breathtaking view on the Terrace Mountains. Picture yourself on the verandah, sipping your favorite drink and experience the unbelievable view. The peace and tranquility will take away that city rush, and allow you to once again look forward to a daily wonder, the sun rising and setting.

Artfully decorated walls and indigenous furniture create a warm and welcoming feeling. The ceiling of each room are decorated with wood to create that warm African look and feel. This is not only very decorative, but an insulation wonder to ensure cool and warm climate control in the bungalow.

If you on a given day prefer to rather lay low in bed, each room will give you that pleasure to enjoy nature from within your bed. Just imagine not to wake-up with a huge building next to your window, blocking out that spacious feeling of the Terrace Mountains and Namibia. Visit our Photo Gallery to familiarize yourself with the breathtaking view at Ugab Terrace Lodge

Tents - ensuite For those of you, that would like to be adventurous and test your wild side, we have 8 tents (en-suite) completely furnished with beds, own showers, toilets and washbasins.

Although comfortably and selectively furnished, these type of accommodation creates that typical “African Safari” feeling of sleeping under the stars.

Inside each tent you will find the necessary tables, chairs, wardrobes and two three quarter beds to ensure that you at least do not sleep on the ground.

Camping If you would prefer not to use our tents and to use your own, we have 6 campsites where you can park your RV or construct your own camp. The campsites are situated against the incline at the foot of a hill overlooking the Ugab terraces and valley. The campsites include a breathtaking view of the terrace as well as a view over the bush canopy and the valley as far as your eyes allow you to see, a spectacular view.

There are six stand alone campsites, four of them directly against really large rocks. The rocks (in other words the campsites as well) are at least 40 meters apart from each other with lots of natures natural trees ( Mopani) and growth in between, almost making campsites invisible to each other.

Each campsite has got its own braai with basin and water. Three campsites share a ablution-block, consisting out of 3 WC`s (toilets), 3 showers, and 3 wash-basins with a donkey for hot water. The Mopani trees are not very big trees but they do shed some shade during the morning till midday hours. From about 15:00 the large rocks and the hill start providing the shade. Unfortunately there are no power points nor any hot water at the campsites (except for that made by the donkey).

At Ugab Terrace Lodge we cater for those who would like to stay in the luxury of a well furnished bungalow, or in a tastefully furnished tent (en-suite) erected on a platform, or camp with your own camping gear at our campsite.

Ugab Terrace Lodge’s staff and management are looking forward to your visit.

Your caring host and hospitality team have been chosen for their attention to finer detail, thereby providing the Luxury of personalized service to you making you fell at home and relax. Sharing their knowledge and experience with you.

Ugab Terrace Lodge sleeps 48 guests in 16 rooms & 8 tents (en-suite), allowing maximum privacy and attention at all times. The accommodation is luxurious and the 16 double rooms with en-suite bathrooms, have been lovingly decorated to create an atmosphere of elegance.

The accommodation at Ugab Terrace Lodge has been designed with comfort in mind, despite the fact that guests spend most of the time outside.

Some ideas of what to do at Ugab Terrace Lodge

In Namibian “terms” of distance we are close to quite a lot of scenic places that you can visit during your stay, over and above the activities that we offer at the lodge

We are about 200 km from the Etosha Game park, where you will have the time of your life watching the game and other wild life in their natural habitat.

Some 90 kilometres west of Khorixas lies Twyfelfontein ("Doubtful Spring"), with one of the most extensive galleries of rock engravings in the world. They aren't really paintings, but have been done by cutting through the hard surface layer of sandstone. More than 2000 petroglyphes have been counted here, and in 1952, the valley of Twyfelfontein was proclaimed a National Monument. The rock engravings are found on a number of smooth rock surfaces and most of them depict animals and their tracks. Scientists have estimated their ages to vary between 1000 and 10000 years: The majority agrees on an age of about 6000 years.

The Brandberg with its highest peak Königstein, is the highest mountain in Namibia and a National Monument. The geological history of Brandberg is just as interesting as the thousands of rock art paintings and engravings on the mountain and its surroundings. The Brandberg itself is not a volcano but is a granite plug which was pressed out of the volcano's pipe and stopped at about 10 000 meters under the surface. That is why the granite of the Brandberg is younger than the Dolorite which lies around the Brandberg.
