Our Story

A Legacy Rooted
in Wild Namibia

Founded on a passion for sustainable travel, Elephant Rest Tented Camp sits on the ancient landscape of Sorris-Sorris in the Kunene Region. The Brandberg Mountain — Namibia’s highest peak — forms our backdrop; the free-roaming desert elephants are our neighbours.

Our small, dedicated team believes that extraordinary encounters with nature should not come at the cost of the land that makes them possible.
