One of the most dramatic rock formations in Namibia is the 35m high pillar of rock, the Vingerklip or Finger of Stone. It stands proudly above a valley in the ancient landscape known as the Ugab terraces. A place of mystery, wind-sculpted rock and far horizons, it is a nature experience which lingers long in the memory. Nestling in this timeless valley is Vingerklip Lodge where guests are warmly welcomed. A sheltered sundowner veranda affords breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside and the unmatched splendour of a Namibian sunset. Gourmet cuisine complemented by fine wines, and refreshing, locally brewed beer is served by the open fireplace in a spacious dining area. Eleven well-appointed, thatched, double accommodation units match the atmosphere of relaxation and tranquillity. For family-style holidays, five of the 22 units offer loft accommodation for two children. Other attractions in the area include: the Petrified Forest where some antediluvian flood deposited giant tree trunks are found. Twyfelfontein is unequalled for its abundance of rock engravings. We are offering several activities: nature drives, guided walks, spectacular sundowner trips and day trips to an authentic Himba village.

There are a number of activities offered here at Vingerklip Lodge, from short walks here in the reserve to day trips into surrounding areas. If there is a trip or hike you would like to do but do not see it on our list, please ask us and we will see what we can do. We always try to be as flexible as possible. There are several different walking trails around Vingerklip Lodge, both guided and un-guided, but nevertheless all walks are well marked and can be done on your own if you prefer to be by yourselves, we do however recommend walking in groups of at least two persons.
