Wilderness Kulala Desert Lodge

The impact of your stay:

Located amidst the desolate Sossusvlei dunes, Kulala Desert Lodge embarked on an ambitious endeavour: ecological restoration in a once arid land used for goat farming. The result is a transformed desert oasis, now thriving with life. In rural Namibia, environmental damage is frequently intertwined with poverty. To alleviate the strain on natural resources, Wilderness has established programmes for empowerment, enterprise, and skills training. These include initiatives such as small-scale farmer development, business training, mentorship, and school scholarships. Wilderness’s impact in Namibia spans a cumulative area of around 167,310 hectares. Operating under the Namibia Large Fauna Programme, they conduct continuous conservation initiatives for desert-adapted wildlife species, encompassing large predators like lions, leopards, brown and spotted hyenas, as well as desert-adapted elephants, black rhinos, giraffes and other ungulates.
