Activities

Kunene River Lodge has many activities on offer – including the Himba tribe, river cruises, White-Water Rafting, birding, hiking, game drives, sundowner cruise, canoeing and of course river fishing. We have one of the finest White-Water Rafting in southern Africa in the Ondorusu Gorge. Here we can arrange a tailor made adventure for up to 6 days to the Epupa Falls. Our river and sundowner cruise is on the Kunene Valley with a sun setting over the Zebra Mountains. Our cultural visit to the local Himba village is quite popular. Here guests will learn more about their lifestyle and their history. The Himba people still use the same techniques as their forefathers did. In the past, the Himba people used to be pastoralist herdsmen travelling with their cattle and goats from one waterhole to the next as seasons changed. Nowadays, they tend to be more permanent with their homesteads (kraals).
