Ongava Private Game Reserve
Ongava
A private reserve right next to Etosha's southern gate, famous for tracking black and white rhinos on foot; guests at the luxury lodges can also take night drives
Ongava Game Reserve covers about 30,000 hectares and borders Etosha's southern boundary. The Wilderness group runs several high-end lodges here, including Ongava Lodge and Little Ongava. The reserve has breeding populations of black and white rhinos, and guests can follow rangers on foot to track them. Night drives, which are not permitted in the national park, are also offered, and a private access route leads into Etosha. Activities are generally open only to lodge guests, are relatively expensive and must be booked in advance. The reserve is only a few kilometers from Anderson Gate.
