The Proposed Construction and Operation of a Tourism Lodge in the Mahango Core Area within the Bwabwata National Park, Kavango East Region, Namibia

Tourism Lodge Project in the Bwabwata National Park

The proposed Project area is currently utilised as a campsite. The campsite will be redeveloped and refurbished into a tourist’s attraction site. The proposed Project involves the construction of eight (8) accommodation units (bungalows) and supporting infrastructure to uniformly operate as a tourism lodge. The Proponent has been granted tourism concession rights for this development. To enhance the visitor’s experience, the lodge will offer a range of recreational activities, including game viewing drives and river game viewing and photography from a boat in the Kavango River. Commitments will be made to ensure construction and operational activities align with best environmental practices as outlined in the park’s management plan.
