Namutoni, Historical fort and camp in Etosha National Park, Namibia.

Namutoni incorporates accommodations within a restored German fort structure, featuring elevated walkways that overlook the King Nehale waterhole for wildlife observation.

The German Schutztruppe constructed the fort between 1902 and 1903, which was later destroyed by the Ovambo people and reconstructed in 1906.

The fort reflects German colonial architecture and currently houses a museum that documents the military history and development of the Etosha region.

The facility provides 24 double rooms, 20 bush chalets, 25 camping sites, two restaurants, a swimming pool, and a filling station for visitors.

Fisher's Pan, located near the camp, serves as a breeding ground for flamingos during wet seasons and attracts numerous water birds throughout the year.
