Accommodation
The “Old Lime Kiln” Lodge is arguably one of Namibia’s best kept secrets! Situated between Namibian towns of Keetmanshoop & Lüderitz, the lodge is the perfect central base for planning trips to surrounding attractions like the famous Fish River Canyon. Rich flora also calls all intrepid botanists (and novice onlookers alike), to come and marvel at the natural beauty of this region. The lodge is well known for its fascinating collection of Lithops (Cole Lithoparium), also known as “Flowering Stones”. We proudly host the biggest registered collection of Lithops in Namibia. Alte Kalköfen is Owner Managed and offers a truly welcome respite from the long dusty roads.
It’s ideal for a lunch stop or overnight stay!
Alte Kalköfen Lodge is situated in a picturesque location surrounded by the breathtaking landscapes of Namibia. From the rugged mountains to the tranquil desert dunes, this lodge provides a front-row seat to the stunning beauty of nature. The opportunity to wake up to these awe-inspiring views is an experience that should not be missed.
Campsite
Each campsite can accommodate up to a maximum of 6 people. The restaurant, the swimming pool and the well-known Cole Lithoparium desert plant collection are also available to campers. Each campsite has its own ablution block powered by solar lighting with a shower, basin, toilet and outside washing troughs for dishes. There is no electricity at the campsites. Hot water is available, heated by a donkey boiler. Breakfast and dinner are available on request, however we ask that you please book dinner at least 1 day before arrival for catering purposes, as all our meals are made with the freshest of ingredients.
