Set off early this morning and leave the coast behind as you venture inland to the barren mountains that epitomise Damaraland. Keep an eye out as you go, desert wildlife often can be glimpsed along the way, the graceful silhouettes of oryx a common sight by the road. Waiting amongst the boulders and crags of Damaraland is Mowani Mountain Camp, the stark peaks frame the horizon and the sweeping plains below where elephants roam. Every aspect at Mowani is designed to make the most of the extraordinary views, from the private terrace of your chalet to the sunset deck to your four-poster bed - and even the pool, it’s a place to get lost in.
For those who can stop staring at the huge skies, there is a profusion of activities on offer to tantalise even the most discerning. Spend the day tracking desert elephants across the at first glance, desolate plains. These giants of the desert claim vast areas in which to wander, always on the search for water and catching sight of them is a thrill that can’t be beat. In the afternoons walk in the footsteps of history at the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Twyfelfontein, where ancient bushman rock art can be found. Stretch out your limbs on one of the many self-guided nature trails that surround Mowani or simply recline by the pool and soak in the extraordinary setting.Where to stay

Safari is on the horizon as your journey continues to the west to the celebrated Etosha National Park. Set in a remote corner of the 35,000-hectare Ongava private game reserve, Ongava Tented Camp boasts a superb location adjoining Etosha. With only eight tents, revel in the romance of the African bush and intimate atmosphere of this wild camp. Ongava Tented curves around a waterhole that draws in wildlife from far and wide, so you can watch giraffe quench their thirst from the chairs on your deck or even while lounging by the pool. The natural style matches the mopane bush, blending the edges between outside and in; you can even wash while elephants spray water in the distance from your outside shower. The large tents offer a private space from which to escape to but the wild is never far - fall asleep to the primal sound of lions calling in the night, raising the hairs on your neck.
The waterholes of Etosha, the only permanent sources of water for hundreds of miles, are a beacon for an abundance of wildlife, and in the dry season these havens throng with activity. Set out in the early hours on a guided drive into the national park where simply sitting by the water can yield a true National Geographic moment. Return to the private reserve and explore the bush away from the crowds; approach rhino on foot with the assistance your expert guide or watch the lazy sun slowly set while you enjoy a G&T, perhaps as elephants graze nearby.Where to stay

The epic road trip is coming to an end, as the road turns back towards Windhoek. However, one reward still awaits along the way. Okonjima is an inspirational stay, a refuge to the area’s wildlife where farmland dominates, and conflict is ever present. Arrive in time to track one of the iconic leopards of Okonjima through the dense bush, where the prize is a glimpse of these regal cats in their element. Back at the lodge, sit in the sala of your spacious chalet and admire the birds that flit around the feeders before dining by candlelight in the lapa. If time allows, unearth the vital work that the AfricCat Foundation undertakes throughout the country on a tour of the research facility on site.

If you're visiting Namibia, the best thing to do is avoid their summer, which is extremely hot. Therefore, the best time to visit Namibia is in winter (May-September) but bear in mind that the desert regions can be bitterly cold at this time of year. The climate of the southern coast is hospitable from February to May, but quite cool and misty year-round, and particularly windy in August.
