The word Halali refers to the sound of a bugle or horn
announcing the end of a days hunting, and I suppose the German
soldiers that were posted here enjoyed the hunting until Governor
Von Lindequist wisely declared the Etosha a game park and reserve. Halali is the
newest of the camps in built the Etosha and was officially opened to tourists in
1967. It also has the largest swimming pool of the park camps. The
facilities, like those of the other camps were completely
refurbished in 2007, being the 100 years anniversary of the Etosha National Park.
Strategically located halfway between Okaukuejo and Namutoni, Halali is situated at the base of a dolomite hill, amongst shady Mopane trees. A flood-lit waterhole which is viewed from an elevated vantage point provides exceptional wildlife viewing throughout the day and into the night.Accommodation is provided in family chalets, two and four bed bush chalets and double rooms – all converted with large sliding doors to the outside, to allow visitors to experience and benefit from the peace and tranquility of the natural surroundings. |
