Overview
Only 30 km southeast of Namibia, the Windhoek capital GocheGanas is a mountain lodge with breathtaking views of a private nature reserve and offers a wonderful combination of nature, wildlife and wellness.
Breathe fresh air through the desert during a safari or discover the local flora and fauna during a guided hike before exploring the Stone Age caves. A wide range of beauty treatments is offered at the world-class lodge’s spa center, which is a must for your stay.
Architecture and decoration combine local arts and crafts into a festival of rich Namibian culture. Wake up each morning in your thatched-roof house for a breathtaking view of the surrounding reserve.
After a full English breakfast, relax in the lodge’s communal area with its modern African design, while you spend your day in the beautiful Namibian countryside. Stroll through one of the nearby waterholes and watch the animals come for a drink.
Before lunch, enjoy the Hilltop Restaurant, which is decorated with vibrant African art, and consult an experienced guide to visit the Stone Age Caves. Stone tools and ceramic fragments found here last for about 9000 years and it is believed that natural sources near the lodge have made the area into a resting place for the ancient millennia of nomads.
On the way to the lodge, you’ll stop at a scenic spot for drinks and snacks at sunset. Make sure you do not leave GocheGanas without being indulged by a beauty treatment at the state-of-the-art Wellness Village.
This award-winning facility offers a range of special packages and spa treatments, from outdoor massages to hydrotherapy, detoxification and nutritional advice.
