  • Camping on the Kwando River Nambwa Campsite
    In this video I spend 3 nights camping at the Nambwa Community campsite in the Kwando Core Area of the Bwabwata National Park. We also explore the surrounding area including a stop at horseshoe bend and stumbling upon hundreds of elephant.
    The Nambwa community campsite is part of the African Monarch Lodges group. They have four sites located on the Kwando river. Each has a tap with filtered river water, BBQ pit and bin. There is basic shared ablutions with hot showers, flush toilets and basins. They also have electrical points there should you wish to charge a camera of phone. The sites are N$250pppn. For bookings see their website.

    I would say Horseshoe Bend is the best Place to see Elephants in Namibia. How was it in the Camp. Iam not sure if it this camp where you allways welcome at the campside but not allowed to visit Bar Restaurant and Pool. Like a second class Guest

      That's the one... Mentioned it in my comments, but didn't make the final edit. I should put it in the description. But they can keep their lodge🤣

    I spent 7 months, 50 years ago at our army base, Bwabata. My experience was absolutely amazing.

    Been there in 2018 on #2, too. Glad to see that nothing has changed since then as we enjoyed the camp site a lot.
    We'll never forget the herd of ellies that paid us a visit one evening taking over the whole camp. Two of these impressive animals were feeding from the tree right above our bush camper, we could watch this from like one meter away through the "windows" of our rooftop tent.
    And yes, the lodge was a bit snobbish back then, too. They don't want you close to the regular guests...

      Since this video theyve moved the campsites far away from the lodge into the bush. Very beautiful sites, but not next to the river anymore

    I did my first ever self drive in September this year in that exact same area. I unfortunately didn’t find elephants as I so badly wanted to see them but I was also scared to drive into them as I was all alone 😅.

    • @NickfrNamibia
      @NickfrNamibia  Год назад +2

      Unlucky, there are so many. Or maybe I was the lucky one🤔 on two occasions I ran into elephant right in the road coming around a bush, scary moments

    Hi Nick, just for interest sake... What is Frank's fuel consumption (km/l) and did it improve since the engine rebuild?

    • @NickfrNamibia
      @NickfrNamibia  Год назад

      Currently on 7.5km/l, slowly improving as the engine is settling. Im hoping for at least 8.5-9🤞🏼
