Twyfelfontein Lodge is located in Twyfelfontein area, a very vulnerable and delicate ecosystem, is renowned for some of the best
examples of Bushman paintings and rock engravings in Southern Africa.
Interesting rock
formations and the remainder of
prehistoric volcanic action can
be seen among the most prominent geographic features including the Organ Pipes,
Burnt Mountain, Dorros Crater and the Petrified
Forest. The fauna and flora of
Damaraland is typical of
the pro-Namib region and plant species include the magnificent Welwitschia,
Moringa and a variety of the Commiphora species. The desert adapted elephant,
rhinoceros, giraffe, springbok, endemic Damara chat and ostrich are some of the wildlife which
can be found living in total harmony with the community and the communal farming
activities of the Uibasen Twyfelfontein Conservancy.
Twyfelfontein Lodge is situated in the heart of the Twyfelfontein Uibasen Conservancy. In
construction utmost care was taken to reduce the visual impact on the
environment and to blend into the mountainside with the use of thatch roofs,
natural stone and paint colours toning in with the surrounding rock formations.
