Kulala Wilderness Camp
| |
 |
| |
Kulala Wilderness Camp has ten thatched chalets that look out into the valley and dunes beyond. |
Kulala Wilderness Camp commands a panoramic view of the valley and mountains beyond. The
camp has ten simple yet stylish chalets ("kulalas") complete with private verandas and en
suite solar-heated bathrooms and sundecks on elevated platforms for that spectacular view.
The main area is raised too, built of canvas with thatched roofing and offers a cozy
atmosphere. Guests can enjoy drinks, a sparkling pool and a breathtaking view of this
area.
Nearby world-famous Soussusvlei is an enormous clay pan, flanked by the famous red sand
dunes that stand out starkly against the blue sky. These dunes - the most well-known being
Big Daddy or Dune 45 - have developed over millions of years, the wind continuously
refashioning the contours of this red sand sea. The 'vlei' itself only fills after rare
heavy rainfall when, in a complete turn-around, it transforms into a spectacular
turquoise lake.
On the edge of the Namib, the oldest desert in the world, wildlife here is fascinating in
its adaptation to the harsh conditions. Sparse yet thrilling to see are springbok, gemsbok,
ostrich, bat-eared fox, the rarely seen aardwolf and many small fauna. Activities include
excursions to the incredible dunes of Soussusvlei, early morning ballooning
(at extra cost), guided walks and scenic nature drives.

| Comfortable bedrooms offer shade during the hot days and a hot water bottle to warm you during the cool desert nights. |
|
The adventurous traveler can sleep under the amazing desert sky on the roof of the chalet. |
