Campsites

There are two different campsites available:

  • Campsite 1 – Up to 12 pax.
  • Campsite 2 – Up to 18 pax.
Uris Lodge Camping Tsumeb

Both campsites are large enough to accommodate multiple vehicles and groups of people. Each site features its own en-suite toilet, shower, and basin, as well as an outside basin, extra tap, and built-in table. Sharing with another group is not feasible due to these amenities.

Wood is supplied for the hot water "donkeys," but guests can purchase firewood at N$15 per bundle.

Campers can use the lodge facilities such as the bar and swimming pool. Meals (dinner, lunch, or breakfast) at the lodge are available, but are subject to restaurant space and lodge guest activities. Reservations must be made in advance or with reception upon check-in.

For a true Namibian experience, please note that there is no electricity available at the campsites and lapa.
