Wolwedans Dune Lodge Sossusvlei - Namibia

Dunes Lodge:
The Dunes Lodge is perched on top of a dune plateau, overlooking panoramic vistas in all directions and capturing the beauty of the desert in a most memorable way. Building style is a combination of wooden structures and canvas blinds, opening up to the desert beyond.
The lodge reflects the ambience of a tented camp, but provides the comfort and protection of a permanent building.
Each of the nine spacious chalets with en-suite bathrooms sports a private verandah, which connects you to vast stretches of untouched sand. Sleeping with your canvas blinds open is just like sleeping under the stars.
The main complex - which has completely been rebuilt during 2003 - consists of two lounges, a number of sundowner decks, a fireplace, a tea deck, a library, the wine cellar and two dining rooms.
The lodge also has a swimming pool, which is suspended above the sand. All communal areas of the lodge open out onto decks with superb views.
The variety of recreational space makes a visit both exciting and relaxing. To make the most of your visit we recommend you stay for three nights.

Where is Wolwedans Dune Camp?
Located in the Heart of the NamibRand Nature Reserve, about 80km South-East of Sossusvlei

Directions to Wolwedans as follows:
Coming from the North: From Windhoek you travel south via Rehoboth (tarred road), and proceed on gravel road via Kobos, Klein Aub, Rietoog and Buellspoort (B1, C24, MR47, D1206) onto the D854. Where you intercept the C19 turn left and after some 5km, turn right onto the D845. Travel some 16 km’s and turn left onto the C27. You stay on the C27 heading south until you reach the first NamibRand signboard. Carry on straight and remain on this road for approx. 45 km until you find the Wolwedans gate on the right hand side. Follow the signs to the Wolwedans farmhouse/reception, which is another 20 km’s from the gate. From here you will be transferred to the Wolwedans Dune Camp or Wolwedans Dunes Lodge. Please do not leave the main road!

Coming from Windhoek you can alternatively choose the scenic route via Spreetshoogte Pass ending at Solitaire (420 km). From Solitaire you head south on C19, turn left onto the C27 to Sesriem and proceed south on C27.
You can also travel on tarred road from WHK to Mariental, then on gravel via Maltahöhe and Tsarispass to Wolwedans (511 km).

From Swakopmund (425 km) or Walvis Bay (395 km) you travel on C14 to Solitaire and proceed on C19 and C27 to the Wolwedans Gate.

Coming from Sesriem, head south on the C27 until you reach the Wolwedans gate. Note not to enter the D845 by driving straight on, but turn right to continue on C27. This a tricky T-junction.

Coming from Lüderitz you travel on the B4 and then you turn into the C13, you may then choose to turn into the D707, which is more of a scenic route. From Betta (here you should fuel) head north-west on the C27 until you reach the Wolwedans gate.

Coming from the South: No matter where you come from, to the west of Maltahöhe the D827 meets the C27. From this point, continue north on the C27 for approx. 30 km’s where you will find the Wolwedans gate on the left hand side. Follow the description above to the Wolwedans farmhouse.
