## About Alte Kalköfen Lodge

Welcome to Alte Kalkofen Lodge: Your Desert Home in Southern Namibia
Nestled in the rugged heart of Southern Namibia, Alte Kalkofen Lodge; a family-run retreat where history whispers through ancient lime kilns and the desert's timeless beauty beckons. Owned by Frikkie and Hilde, our lodge, set on a historic farm between Keetmanshoop and Lüderitz. Here, cosy bungalows with private terraces overlook the Gurib riverbed's golden expanse, inviting you to pause, breathe, and reconnect. While wildlife like oryx, ostrich, giraffe, kudu or springbok may occasionally grace the horizon, it's the soul-stirring serenity and heartfelt hospitality that define your stay.

Step into our story: Hilde's fusion cuisine, think succulent steaks infused with local spices, at our panoramic restaurant, where every dish is crafted with fresh, Namibian ingredients. Wander through the Cole Lithoparium, Africa's premier collection of Lithops, those enchanting "living stones" camouflaged in our rocky embrace, a botanist's dream just steps from your bungalow. Explore birdwatching hides alive with nomadic melodies. Our friendly staff, ensure seamless stays, whether you're sipping coffee on your terrace or cooling off in our sparkling pool.

Our Guided Adventures: Join us for unforgettable experiences, our 2-hour Scenic Drive winds through changing landscapes to a 1, 000-year-old tree, culminating in sundowner vistas that paint the desert gold. Savour a Sunrise Breakfast by the Gurib River, where dawn's glow feels like a private gift.

Explore Nearby Wonders. Venture out to Southern Namibia's iconic treasures: self-guided, yet easily accessible. Trek 190km to Fish River Canyon, Africa's grandest chasm, or chase tales of lost fortunes in Kolmanskop's sand-swallowed ghost town (230km). Closer still, spot desert horses at Garub Plains (140km) or feel the coastal mystique of Lüderitz (240km).

Why choose Alte Kalkofen? Because here, every moment feels like being in 'Your Home in the Desert'…
