The sites at this camp are dotted around the base of the Spitzkoppe and surrounding outcrops. Most are set in magical rock hollows and provide a sense of real isolation and oneness with the bouldered surrounds. Facilities at the entrance include a reception office, ecofriendly ablutions blocks and braai (barbecue) stands, plus a bar and restaurant.
