Lodge Overview

Quiver trees, Nama culture, rugged landscape, and an impressive sweeping rock formation characterise Canyon Village. Forty-two stone-and-thatch chalets are positioned in a horseshoe design around a celebration of young quiver trees and the sprawling thatched central area, bedecked with bougainvillaea, serving as a restaurant, bar, lounge, and reception.

An ox-wagon with over hundreds of years of history ingrained in its wood stands in the buffet area, and a well-preserved horse cart has been placed amongst the boulders in the cosy bar. These homely touches bring warmth and intrigue to a lodge which is an ideal base to explore the Fish River Canyon, Namibia's star attraction, only 16 kilometres away from Hobas, the Fish River Canyon’s main viewing point.

Join a guided excursion to the canyon viewpoints to be inspired by new perspectives. You haven't gained a suitable perspective of the surrounds until you glimpse the spectacular view from the rocky heights.

Embark on the 4x4 //Garas Self-Drive and experience wildlife in the Gondwana Canyon Park. Make the time to relax and soak in the sun at the pool, loaf in one of the comfortable sofas in the lounge, watch the sun set on a sunset drive.
