SafarihoekActivities
The Etosha area is rated one of the best places in Africa to view rhino, and Etosha Heights offers unique encounters.
Apart from the numerous species of birds found in the area, antelope, giraffe and other plains game abound. In winter, aardvark sightings are not infrequent. From gemsbok to kudu, herds of eland, the elusive Hartmann’s zebra, and so much more, Etosha Heights is an area rich in biodiversity.
With lions, both black and white rhino, and several nomadic elephants, the Safarihoek experience is quintessential Namibia.
