River Crossing Lodge Windhoek Namibia

Nestled outside between the lounge and dining area is the pool (great for swimming lengths – it really is quite long!) The elevated wooden deck offers a fairytale view of Windhoek.The Lodge and the rooms have been designed to emulate old German farm houses – think ‘stoep’ with ‘afdakkie’ and pots of geraniums.
The 20 guest chalets consist of 14 twin chalets and 6 double chalets (all chalets have en suite bathrooms with showers, loos and basins).

Two of the chalets have been designed with honeymooners in mind and have baths instead of showers …of course all rooms have the feather duvets wrapped in 100% cotton, the environmentally friendly guest amenities and the unparalleled service and hospitality to consider too.

6 chalets offer views of Windhoek and 14 face east offering superb sunrise views of the Moltkeblick Mountain. We also train aspirant Namibians to make a cutting edge contribution in lodge operations. In fact there’s very little that’s not possible at River Crossing.

What to do at River Crossing
Besides our accommodation we also offer a host of activities including game drives, horse riding, guided or self guided walks and mountain biking. We have a selection of function venues and would love to host your 60th birthday bash, your 25th wedding anniversary or any other occasion you can think of.

The game drives morning and afternoon are engaging. The views are superb, the flora varied and the game abundant. Nineteen different species roam the reserve, including roan, sable, giraffe and wildebeest. Leopard and cheetah are also seen from time to time. The reserve can also be explored on foot, in the company of one of our guides or on your own. Footpaths will be laid out soon, but roads and game tracks make the going good. The reserve is very hilly, so a basic level of fitness is required.

Mountain bikes will be introduced at a future date (the hills have been mentioned!) – many mountain bikers from Windhoek know the property well and have ridden here in the past.Horses are also a very eco friendly way of exploring the lie of the land. Quiet and un-invasive, the horses allow guests to get a lot closer to the game than in a vehicle.

The wellness centre run by Claire Liebenberg offers tired and aching limbs (either from driving our gravel roads or stress from work or sports related injuries) a soothing way to rehabilitate. Shop till you drop at the Windhoek markets and malls
