KlipKop Lodge & Farming
A family-run guest and hunting farm of 4,500 ha beside the B1, about 30 km short of Otjiwarongo, with four bungalows, two farmhouse rooms, full board and farm game drives.
KlipKop is a family-run farm on the B1, west of the Waterberg and roughly 30 km before you reach Otjiwarongo. The name comes from the basalt koppie on the property, and it is the landmark to look out for from the road. Otjiwarongo itself is about 250 km north of Windhoek on the same road. It is an old-style Namibian guest farm rather than a lodge, and it suits people who want a quiet couple of nights on the way north.
What to expect
The farm covers 4,500 ha. Guests go out on game drives in an open vehicle, walk or scramble up the big and small KlipKop hills, ride the farm’s horses or sit in one of the hides at a waterhole. Kudu, oryx, eland, giraffe, mountain zebra, both kinds of wildebeest and plenty of baboons live here. Leopard tracks are common, the cat itself much less so.
Stays are full board, with dinner by the fire outside or by the hearth on cold nights. The kitchen mixes German and Namibian cooking.
Practical details
- Four bungalows plus two double rooms in the old farmhouse, for 12 guests in all.
- Bungalows have a double bed, shower, fans, mosquito nets and a small terrace facing the waterhole. Two have air conditioning.
- Free wifi across the farm, and a pool with a thatched deck.
- Phone +264 81 214 3765. The website is in German.
Good to know
KlipKop is also a hunting farm, with its own hunting packages, so you may find hunters staying at the same time as you. If that bothers you, ask when you book. Day trips to the Waterberg and Etosha are possible from here, though Etosha makes for a long day.
