Boplaas Campsite
Rustic riverside camping on the scenic Orange River route, offering kayaking and desert hiking trails.
Boplaas Campsite is a rustic and serene destination situated on the banks of the Orange River in southern Namibia. Operated by Namibia Wildlife Resorts, the camp is located along one of the country's most spectacular scenic routes between Aussenkehr and Rosh Pinah. It serves as an ideal base for outdoor adventurers, offering 15 well-positioned campsites with access to shared ablution facilities including showers and toilets. The primary draw of Boplaas is its proximity to the river, providing excellent opportunities for half-day kayaking excursions, mountain hiking trails, and cycling. The environment is peaceful and minimalist, catering to self-sufficient travelers who wish to immerse themselves in the rugged desert landscape near the Ai-Ais Richtersveld Transfrontier Park. Guests can enjoy panoramic views of the water and the surrounding mountains, making it a popular stopover for those exploring the Fish River Canyon area. The camp is easily accessible by standard vehicles, though the journey itself is a highlight of the visit.
