Sustainability Story
Located in the heart of NamibRand Nature Reserve, Wolwedans transcends being merely a group of camps — it is a collection of dreams. In 1995, the late Albi Brückner and his son Stephan established Wolwedans with just four igloo tents, starting a journey with an uncertain destination. Today, still under Stephan's leadership, Wolwedans has evolved into five tourism properties, an active Foundation and the Desert Academy — all guided by a bold, forward-looking and holistic vision known as "The AridEden Project."
Committed to the conservation of NamibRand, the development of Namibia and its communities, and the promotion of rural revival through the establishment of a desert-based economy, Wolwedans quietly continues its impactful work. They are committed to maintaining an equilibrium between people, the planet and profit — thus celebrating sustainability as a guiding principle that influences every facet of their actions.
