The waterhole is in the western part of Etosha, directly in Olifantsrus Camp, and you can watch it from the viewing tower.

What you can experience here

The waterhole is located directly in Olifantsrus Camp and offers you an exceptional opportunity to experience wildlife up close. A walkway leads you to a two-storey viewing tower situated right next to the waterhole. From here you not only have a perfect overview of the savanna landscape and the bushes in the distance, but you can also observe the animals from very close by. This location and the design of the tower mean you can remain in a safe environment even after dark and follow the nightly activities at the waterhole – provided you are camping in Olifantsrus.
