Windhoek, the capital of Namibia, is located more or less in the middle of the country. Being centrally placed, visitors to this beautiful and diverse country often travel to Windhoek first and from there on to the outlying areas where the spectacular attractions are seen and exciting activities are participated in.
The magnificent beauty of the Namib desert and the extraordinary sights of African wildlife makes Namibia an exceptional place to visit.
Situated on top of a hill, a mere 29 km outside Windhoek, is the GocheGanas Nature Reserve and Wellness Village.
With uninterrupted views over the breathtaking landscape, GocheGanas offers a combination of wildlife, nature and wellness experiences in the luxurious facilities provided by the lodge.
