2 Days / 1 Night Awash National Park Adventure

Experience the beauty of Awash National Park, one of Ethiopia’s oldest and most accessible wildlife reserves, on this exciting 2-day adventure from Addis Ababa. Located in the heart of the Great Rift Valley, the park is known for its diverse wildlife, dramatic landscapes, volcanic scenery, and rich birdlife.

Your journey begins with a scenic drive from Addis Ababa through the Rift Valley, passing small towns, acacia woodlands, and the famous Lake Beseka. Upon arrival at Awash National Park, you will explore the stunning Awash Falls, where the Awash River plunges into a spectacular gorge surrounded by lush vegetation and volcanic rock formations.

In the afternoon, enjoy a guided game drive through the park’s open savannah and acacia forests. Keep an eye out for Beisa Oryx, Lesser Kudu, Greater Kudu, Soemmerring’s Gazelle, Salt’s Dik-dik, Warthogs, Olive Baboons, Vervet Monkeys, and other wildlife species that inhabit the area. The park is also a paradise for birdwatchers, with more than 450 recorded bird species including ostriches, hornbills, eagles, kingfishers, and colorful bee-eaters.

As the sun sets over the Rift Valley, relax at your lodge or campsite and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the Ethiopian wilderness. The evening offers excellent opportunities for photography, stargazing, and listening to the sounds of nature.

On the second day, start early with a sunrise game drive when wildlife is most active. After breakfast, visit the famous Filwoha Hot Springs, a natural oasis surrounded by palm trees and volcanic formations. Depending on time and interest, you may also explore the scenic surroundings of Mount Fentale, an extinct volcano that offers breathtaking views of the surrounding plains.

After lunch, begin the return journey to Addis Ababa, arriving in the late afternoon with unforgettable memories of Ethiopia’s unique wildlife and landscapes.

This tour is ideal for nature lovers, wildlife enthusiasts, birdwatchers, photographers, and travelers seeking a short but rewarding escape from the city. Combining wildlife, scenic beauty, and cultural experiences, Awash National Park offers one of the best weekend adventures in Ethiopia.
