About Halali Camp

A game-viewing gem hidden amongst rocky outcrops in the heart of Etosha
Nestled amongst rocky hills and koppies in an otherwise relentlessly flat landscape, this characterful camp offers something rather special. The thicker vegetation that surrounds the area attracts secretive leopards, endangered rhinos and herds of elephants, making for exceptional wildlife viewing opportunities. Strategically positioned halfway between Namutoni and Okaukuejo, the location couldn't be better for exploring some of the most productive waterholes in the region. But the crown jewel has to be the camp's own floodlit waterhole, just a short amble away. Here, you can while away hours watching the parade of wildlife quenching their thirst, with the action continuing well after the sun dips below the horizon.
From $80 per person/per night

Property details

The property

As the temperature rises, the largest swimming pool in the park beckons – a refreshing oasis after a dusty morning game drive. The main building houses a restaurant serving simple yet hearty fare, perfect for refuelling between wildlife spotting sessions. There's also a shop for essentials, cold drinks and those all-important ice creams that taste twice as good in the African heat. With a petrol station on-site, it's also conveniently practical for those on a self-drive safari adventure. The camp's layout encourages sociable encounters with fellow travellers, swapping tales of big cat sightings or rare bird spots over an evening drink.

The rooms

Accommodation options cater to all types of travellers, from cosy double rooms with en-suite bathrooms to spacious Bush Chalets that come in various configurations. Couples might opt for the two-bed chalets, while families will appreciate the four-bed versions that come with added kitchen and lounge areas. All units are simply furnished but comfortable, with the essentials you need for a good night's sleep after action-packed days. The chalets, with their rustic charm and thatched roofs, blend harmoniously into the surrounding landscape, enhancing that authentic safari feel.

The sense of history that permeates the place – its very name (German for 'the traditional ending of a hunt') marks the pivotal moment when Namibia shifted from hunting to the conservation-focused eco-tourism that thrives today.

Grab a sundowner and settle in at the camp's waterhole around dusk – this is prime viewing time when the wildlife really comes alive and the setting couldn't be more magical.

Something to think about

Whilst the camp offers good facilities, it's worth noting that it can get quite busy during peak season, so booking well in advance is recommended if you're planning to visit during these times.
