Planning and booking your hunting trip
We recommend you to book your hunting holiday well in advance to enable us to prepare for all your hunting and personal requests. We offer exclusive hunting because we wish to be completely at your service at all times. Therefore only one hunter (with or without companion) or only one group of hunters will be accommodated by us at any time.

Once you have decided to make Okosongoro the destination of your hunting trip, please apply for accommodation. We then check the dates, obtain the required hunting permits and confirm the dates with you.

Following that, we send you the official hunting contract and once you sign this contract a deposit of 50% of the relevant rates becomes payable.

Your booking will only be confirmed after this payment has been received.

Hunting Season
The official hunting season in Namibia is from the beginning of February until the end of November. Due to occasional rains earlier in the year and to avoid the summer heat, hunting on Okosongoro starts on 1 April and ends on 31 October.

During the dry season (April to September / October) temperatures are pleasant and humidity is low. From October onwards temperatures may rise above 30º C.

Weapons and ammunition
We recommend you to bring your own rifle (two are allowed). Suitable calibres are 30-06, .375, .338 or the like. It is hardly ever necessary to shoot at long range. The normal range is 80 to 150 Meter.
Bringing your own rifle to Namibia is no problem. Upon arrival at Hosea Kutako International Airport, Windhoek, please declare your rifle and submit your firearms certificate. The import of hand guns is prohibited. A maximum of 80 rounds of ammunition per rifle may be brought into the country.

Medal trophies
For many years Okosongoro Safari Ranch has produced a large percentage of medal trophies. The fortunate hunters have all the more reason to smile as medal trophies do not attract any extra charges.

Okosongoro Trophy Information
Below follows a list of the largest trophies taken on Oksosongoro up to now. To obtain excellent trophies the hunter should be able to shoot well and the safari should be long enough for him to hunt a variety of animals.
