This National Park is one of the largest in Africa, and owes its unique landscape to the basin of a generally dry lake of approximately 5,000 km². Etosha was proclaimed as Namibia's first conservation area in 1907 by the then German government; at that time, it covered a large area of 93,240 km² and was then the largest hunting ground in the world. Some 114 species of mammals have been found within the park, and several of them are difficult to find in other areas of Africa and are in danger of extinction, such as the black rhinoceros, cheetah and black-fronted impala. The safari includes snacks organised by the camp, although a stop will be made at one of the lodges for lunch (not included). Return to the camp for dinner and accommodation.
