Spitzkoppe Community Restcamp

Spitzkoppe Community Restcamp is the original and most famous way to experience Namibia’s Matterhorn. Managed by the local community in a joint venture, this destination offers massive, secluded campsites tucked between granite boulders inside the reserve. The experience is intentionally "wild" and minimalist: campsites feature dry toilets and private fire pits, while hot showers and a small restaurant are located only at the central reception area. It is the premier choice for travelers seeking absolute silence, world-class stargazing, and direct access to the "Arch" and other rock formations for sunrise and sunset photography. Staying here supports the #Gaingu Conservancy and provides the most authentic connection to the geological landscape of the Spitzkoppe.
