Halali Camp can be found halfway between Okaukuejo and Namutoni. German soldiers enjoyed hunting here before Governor Von Lindequist wisely declared the Etosha region a game park and reserve. “Halali” means the sound of a horn which signals the end of a day’s hunting.
Halali Camp is at the base of a dolomite hill, under the shade of Mopane trees. The camp is easily accessible through the Anderson or Von Lindequist entrance gate. Furthermore, the centre has a floodlit waterhole with raised seating for excellent game sightings. This provides exceptional wildlife viewing throughout the day and into the night. Therefore, it is a perfect location for sunset views and photography.
Halali Camp is one of the guests’ favourite watering holes inside Etosha National Park. Elephants, black rhinos, spotted hyenas, and lions are regular visitors. For one thing, there is a resident leopard that drinks at the Moringa waterhole every day!
Other facilities include a restaurant, bar, shop, swimming pool, kiosk and camping facilities. With attention to detail and their focus on providing a comfortable stay, we highly recommend Halali Camp.
