Here, where&nbsp; the&nbsp; winding river&nbsp; washes&nbsp; down&nbsp; to&nbsp; the&nbsp; sea, adventure and tranquility meet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Staying with us<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A lush canopy of indigenous trees shades the grounds, accommodation and campsites,\u00a0 while the\u00a0 swimming pool beckons from a sunny lawn. From the bar and restaurant, a deck extends over the river, providing a spectacular location for a relaxing drink, delicious meal, and birdwatching while you unwind to the soothing pace of the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Campsites&nbsp; in the shade of old leadwood and jackalberry trees,&nbsp; will appeal to rugged travellers with most of them offering a view of the river. Electrical outlets&nbsp; and braai facilities are available at each site with communal ablution blocks for men and women with hot water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Experiences<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you are seeking adventure or wish to break from your daily routine and just relax, Kunene River Lodge will meet your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Birding enthusiasts will love it here. The discovery of the first two Cinderella Waxbill nests brought this elusive species into the spotlight. Though the nests are no longer present, spotting these charming birds remains a rare and delightful experience for visitors. There are&nbsp;many&nbsp;species&nbsp;of great interest to&nbsp;be found in the&nbsp;area including the&nbsp;rare Grey&nbsp;Kestrel which is resident nearby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Adventures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Africa\u2019s fabulous sunsets are legendary, and they look even better from the water&nbsp; during a Sundowner Cruise, especially with a refreshing sundowner in your hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Birdwatching from the water&nbsp; is a leisurely pastime as the boat meanders along the&nbsp; current. Your eagle-eyed&nbsp; guide will point out the local feathered inhabitants as a new day dawns over the Kunene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Later that day, venture into a Himba Village where&nbsp; the inhabitants hold fast to their traditional way of life. These remarkable people will teach you more about their proud customs and culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As one of Namibia\u2019s foremost rafting locations you can experience a thrilling ride through the&nbsp; rapids&nbsp; of the&nbsp; Ondorusu Gorge, a day long adventure or a tailor-made expedition to Epupa Falls, camping under the stars, with full backup and an expert guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The soothing&nbsp; sounds&nbsp; of the&nbsp; river&nbsp; and birdsong&nbsp; will capture your heart. You will long to stay here where adventure meets tranquility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/kuneneriverlodge.com\/\">Back to Homepage<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the vast&nbsp; wilderness&nbsp; of north-west Namibia, this&nbsp; spectacularly remote lodge is situated on the bank of the mighty river, overlooking Angola.
