Kalahari Red Dunes Lodge
Overview
The Kalahari Red Dunes Lodge is situated in a vlei among the dunes on the western edge of the Kalahari, where the expansive Karoo desert meets the first red dunes of the Kalahari desert.
This intimate lodge features uniquely and lovingly designed suites, each offering ample space and privacy. Guests are welcomed in a spacious reception building, and from there, a wooden walkway leads to the main building, which houses a restaurant with a cozy fireplace, a bar, an inviting lounge, and the "Kalahari Lounge" that boasts a fine selection of whiskey and hosts a billiard table. Additionally, there is a pool with a shaded area and comfortable loungers at the heart of the vlei.
Guests are encouraged to explore the Kalahari desert by following the well-marked hiking trails, biking, or participating in nature drives offered in the morning or afternoon.
For a deeper experience of the African Savannah's vastness, guests can embark on the 2- or 3-day TRANS KALAHARI WALK. This guided hike traverses desert-like landscapes teeming with giraffes, zebras, and antelopes, culminating in an overnight stay in the Dunes Camp nestled in the reserve.

What you can do
TRANS KALAHARI WALK
Guided full day hike through the Kalahari with 2 over-nights. Hiking and spending the night in the vastness of the African savannah offers the most intense nature experience. The red sand dunes and the grass and tree planes of the Kalahari will captivate every traveller. Feel the hot desert wind on your skin. Watch antelope herds in the vast veld or spot giraff es feeding among the trees. Experience the sunset. Enjoy an African Braai at the campfire on a dune before listening to the sounds of the night, either in a tent or even outside under the starry sky. In the morning, shortly before sunrise, grab a hot cup of coffee and watch gnus and zebras on the water hole before experiencing that magic moment when the sun comes up in glittering gold just behind the dunes. All of a sudden, the temperature turns comfortably warm, the night is over, a new day has begun. Africa. The Trans-Kalahari Walk perfectly combines a comfortable stay at the lodge with exhausting but rewarding physical activities and campfire romanticism in the Kalahari dunes.
