The verandah of the historic farm house. The farm Ababis was established as outpost for the former “Kaiserliches Landgestuet Nauchas" and belonged to the Voigt family until 1985. Since then it is being run by the Schulze Neuhoff family. Berghouse is the former dwelling (built 1948) at the farm Stolzenfels, which has been part of Ababis since 1960. The house lies amid the pristine African savannah surrounded by the Rand and Remhoogte mountains. Enjoy a couple of days of unspoilt nature and abundance of wildlife. A model of a planned olive grove on Ababis, which is to be ready by Desert in Art, is displayed at the farm. The grove was designed by Hamburg landscape architect Kathrin Wolf.
