Discover everything about this location.
The white salt pan shapes the landscape.
Etosha National Park is Namibia’s best-known national park. Its name comes from the vast salt pan. Etosha literally means ‘great white place’.
The scale is substantial. In area, Etosha is almost half the size of the Netherlands.
On a self drive, you decide which waterholes to stop at and how long to stay.
The waterholes are where things happen.
Etosha is known for the number of animals and the variety of species. Elephants, rhinos, giraffes, wildebeest, zebras and cheetahs are among the animals you may see here.
At Namutoni, Halali and Okaukuejo, waterholes lie close to the camps. That means wildlife can still appear after the day’s driving is done.
Drive by day. Keep watching in the evening.
Game drives are central to a visit to Etosha. You drive yourself through the park and choose where to stop along the way.
Guided walks are also available, giving you another way to explore the area with local guidance.
