Sorris Sorris Lodge
With natural wonders such as the
Brandberg Massif and the Ugab River as a
backdrop, Sorris Sorris offers a truly opulent
base for exploring Damaraland’s rugged
desert scenery.
Here guests can delve into wonderful
activities – like nature drives to find desertadapted
elephants in the rugged landscape.
Boasting only nine units each filled with all
of the creature comforts you would expect
and more; the emphasis is on an intimate
experience. Pale woods, crisp linens and
modern architectural design contrast with
the rugged mountain terrain and offer a
stylish base for your adventures.
There is a swimming pool and deck where
you can lounge away an afternoon or
between your activities. And open-fronted
lounge which enjoys the breeze and
uninterrupted views of the Brandberg,
Namibia’s highest mountain.

Located on the rim of the Fish River
Canyon, one of Namibia’s top tourist
destinations, Fish River Lodge offers forty
guests breath-taking views directly over the
canyon from sunrise to sunset.
The landscape around the western side of
the canyon is vast, empty and ancient.
Perfect for both solitude and adventure.
Explore the canyon and surrounds by foot,
safari vehicle or mountain bike and
experience the drama of this 500 million
year old geological wonder.
Fish River Lodge – on the edge of eternity.
The unique landscape has provided the
inspiration for the contemporary design of
the Lodge. Dry stone walls, tall windows
and wrap around decks allow views of the
canyon to take priority.
A rim pool providing cool comfort in the hot
summer months also overlooks the canyon,
whilst crackling fireplaces in the main lodge
offer warmth and cosiness in winter. A
platform outside each chalet allows for
outdoor yoga and clerestory windows frame
a myriad stars at night.
The 45,000 hectare Canyon Nature Park is
a sanctuary for Karoo succulent flora where
the Aloe dichotoma, locally known as
Kokerboom, stands sentinel and wildlife,
including the rare Hartman’s zebra, oryx
antelope and ostriches, appear and
disappear in the rocky side canyons.

There are few things so powerful as to wake
up to the splendor of the desert stretching to
the limits of your vision. Tendrils of sunlight
lazily creeping about in preparation for their
day, their primordial existence in sync with
the age of the stones around you. We pride
ourselves on providing luxurious comfort
and rest to all our clients by only using the
best quality linen, 100% cotton towels and
fragrant bathroom amenities.
Inspired by the huts of the ancient peoples
of the Namib, designed, built and
engineered by the owners and founders,
Desert Hills Lodge is certainly a visual
delight. The proprietary designs of the high
grass domes leave one in awe as the eye
journeys across its curved organic surfaces,
without the edges and corners of the
buildings of the daily hustle and bustle of
cities.
Not only do we wish that you enjoy your
sleep and cuisine when visiting Desert Hills
Lodge, but we want you to go back home
invigorated by grand adventure and
exclusive experiences. You can book a
three hour nature drive, including
refreshments, to look at the unique fauna
and flora adapted to desert life in the area,
sun-downers to greet yet another
spectacularly full day or even just hiking
along the mountain trails cut into the
mountains by zebras over centuries.
