Bahnhof Hotel

The Bahnhof Hotel is situated in Aus, 120kms from Lüderitz. The Bahnhof Hotel was initially built in 1906. After extensive renovations in 2005 this Jewel of the Spergebiet has imperturbably grown in size and rating alike. The overall atmosphere and the personal touch within the realm of this establishment are setting it off from many other players in this field.

Attractions:

• The area west of Aus is noted for its herd of feral horses living in the desert. Their origin is uncertain but today there is a population of between 150 and 200 individuals which have adapted to the harsh environment. They urinate less than domestic horses and can go 5 days without water. They drink at an artificial waterhole at Garub Pan where a blind has been erected to enable tourists to watch the animals without disturbing them.
• The Village was formerly the site of a prisoner of war camp established by the South African army in 1915 to house German inmates captured during the First World War. The inmates initially lived in tents but later built brickhouse, the number of prisoners reached 1500 but May 1919 the last inmates left and the camp closed. A plaque marks the site today and some of the houses have been reconstructed.
