Eagles Nest Chalets near Aus
Eagles Nest Chalets offers seven self-catering units among granite boulders in the Aus Mountains of southern Namibia. The elevated setting provides broad views across the Pro-Namib landscape, while the small number of chalets creates a private atmosphere for couples, families and small groups.
The property lies about 7 kilometres from Desert Horse Inn and approximately 2 kilometres west of Aus as the crow flies, with access continuing along the local track. Each chalet includes a kitchen, veranda and barbecue area, so guests can prepare their own meals and spend time in the landscape.
Nearby attractions include the Garub area associated with Namibia’s desert-adapted horses, the coastal town of Lüderitz and Kolmanskop. Guests can also hike or cycle in the Aus Mountains or reserve guided scenic drives.
