Frequently Asked Questions

What's the real draw of staying at Dinosaur's Tracks Campsite, beyond its proximity to Okonjati?

We love that Dinosaur's Tracks Campsite offers a truly authentic Namibian farm stay experience combined with incredible wildlife viewing. You're not just near Okonjati; you're on a working farm where you can often spot game right from your campsite. The sense of peace and the vast, starry skies are simply unparalleled.

We're planning a trip in July. Is this a good time to visit Dinosaur's Tracks Campsite?

July is a fantastic time to visit Namibia, and Dinosaur's Tracks Campsite is no exception. The weather is dry and cool, making it ideal for exploring Okonjati and enjoying the campfire in the evenings. Wildlife tends to congregate around water sources, increasing your chances of sightings.

What kind of facilities can we expect at the campsite itself, and is it basic or more comfortable?

The campsite strikes a wonderful balance between rustic charm and essential comfort. While it's a campsite, we found the ablutions to be clean and well maintained, and there are usually braai areas available. It feels wonderfully remote without being truly primitive, perfect for those who appreciate nature with a touch of ease.

Are there any specific safety concerns we should be aware of when camping near Okonjati?

We always advise standard precautions when in wildlife areas. Keep your campsite clean, store food securely, and never approach animals, especially at the campsite. The farm owners are knowledgeable and helpful, so don't hesitate to ask them for local advice on staying safe.

Besides game drives in Okonjati, what other activities does Dinosaur's Tracks Campsite offer or recommend?

While Okonjati is a major highlight, we highly recommend taking time to explore the farm itself. Guided walks can reveal fascinating smaller creatures and unique desert flora. Chatting with the farm owners offers invaluable insight into the local ecosystem and the history of the area, which we found incredibly rewarding.
