Guest Farm Kiripotib

The bird-watching is a self-guided tour around the farm. Guests can take a walk around the farm with their bird watching equipment and take a look at the extensive range and species of birds that are around the farm. The range and different species that guests see on their tour will depend largely on the time of year, seasonality and rainfall.

Come along to the cheetah and caracal feeding and see the animals that Kiripotib cares for. A great chance to see these majestic cats up close and learn more about cheetah and caracal conservation in Namibia. Besides them, there are living the beautiful caracals, it ́s an African lynx.

This tour is a way for guests to experience nature up close and personal. There are 6 adult bikes and 2 children's bikes at the moment. This guided tour takes the cyclists through the game camps for an exciting 2 hours ride. The tour is round about 20 kilometres in total and thus happens in the morning when it is much cooler and guests can have a better look at all the wildlife in the camp.

After breakfast, there is a short walk around the farm. The tour consists of a little educational lesson on the plants and trees around the farm and all their many different uses, a short lesson on how exactly solar cooking happens at the farm, another very interesting lesson and demonstration of the spinning, dyeing and weaving process of our own hand-made Kirikara carpets.The tour ends in the Kirikara Gallery, where local arts and crafts and designers from other African countries have their hand-made jewellery on display. Kirikara Gallery is also the home of Claudia von Hase's high-quality arts and jewellery. Guests can then buy jewellery and art from the shop to take home as gifts or as souvenirs.

From the modern 20m double seater, over the 18m own starter, to the open class, we want to provide all pilots with the right aircraft! You will get the planes cleaned and handed over by us. If you have never flown in Namibia or if you fly the type of airplane for the first time, a check flight with one of our pilots is obligatory, because safety is very important to us.Gliders available are self-launching Arcus M, this year also the new Twin Shark.They are in perfect condition, equipped with the best instruments. Most modern gliding computers are prepared with waypoints and airspace “ready to race”. The coaches are well familiar with the area. Effective training can start with the first launch.The lodges offer everything you need also well away from flying: first class accommodation, competent and friendly staff and outstanding hospitality.

In about 1 hour you can try the self-guided or guided, simple aloe forest walk. Alternatively we offer a guided walk in the nearby Karubeams Mountains. Early risers will appreciate a guided walk to the sunrise, and a short walk over flat terrain to our aloe forest is also by inexperienced hikers to create.You can hike with our guide on the constructed path. With some luck you can see some Oryx or Kudus. On the top of the mountain we enjoy a peak-breakfast. After 3 hours we will be back at Kiripotib.
