Nearby attractions and activities:
Game Drive - With 21 different wildlife species on the 6000 hectares at GocheGanas, our game drives remain a very popular activity. Game drives are undertaken early morning and late afternoon and includes a stop halfway where we serve snacks and drinks to our guests. Our qualified guide assists with sharing information on fauna, flora and interesting bird species. With the abundance of game on the farm, every game drive has its highlights, especially when guests are lucky enough to view our rhino family!

Other game on GocheGanas include steenbok, duiker, klipspringer, red hartebeest, wildebeest (blue), eland, Burchell's zebra (Protected and conserved mammals in Namibia), springbok, oryx (gemsbok), kudu, giraffe, waterbuck, warthog, Hartmann's mountain zebra (Endemic, one of Namibia's conserved mammals), square-lipped (white) rhinoceros (Second largest land mammal), cheetah, leopard, caracal, striped polecat (Zorilla), and black wildebeest.

Stone Age Caverns - During December 2002, the owners of GocheGanas Nature Reserve made an exciting discovery of ancient stone age caverns, located a few kilometres from the Lodge. Stone tools and a variety of pottery shards were found, and it has been confirmed that the pieces are between 2000 and 9000 years old. A visit to the Stone Age Caverns lasts about 2 and a half hours, and includes a drive to the site, and thereafter a short walk to the Caverns. On the way back to the Lodge, we stop for sundowner drinks and snacks.

We also offer guided walks in the vicinity of the Lodge. Given the number of water holes around the Lodge, this remains a popular activity. Again, our guide will inform the guests about the interesting geology, fauna and flora of the area. Guests are also welcome to undertake unguided walks around the Lodge.
