From Gondar: 3-Day Simien Mountains Trekking Tour

Embark on a 3-day guided trek through the Simien Mountains from Gondar. Stay at Simien Lodge and a campsite, see the Jinbar Waterfall, and spot gelada baboons in their natural habitat.
Day 1: Gondar to Simien Lodge

Begin your adventure with an early morning departure from Gondar, driving north toward Debark, the gateway to the Simien Mountains National Park. At the park headquarters, complete the necessary entrance formalities and meet your local scout and guide.

Drive toward Buyit Ras to begin walking along the escarpment toward Sankaber. The trail features dramatic mountain cliffs, deep valleys, and frequent encounters with endemic Gelada baboons.

Arrive near Sankaber (approx. 3,250 m) to take in the views before transferring to Simien Lodge, the highest lodge in Africa (3,260 m). Enjoy a hot shower, a warm meal by the fireplace, and the high-altitude mountain sunset.

Day 2: Simien Lodge to Geech

After breakfast at the lodge, set out on the day's trek toward Geech. Follow the escarpment and descend gradually toward the Jinbar River. Arrive at the spectacular Jinbar Waterfall, where the river plunges into the Geech Abyss. Enjoy a picnic lunch surrounded by the canyon views.

Cross the Jinbar River and gradually ascend toward Geech, passing through high-altitude moorland dotted with giant lobelias and additional gelada baboon troops. Arrive at Geech campsite (approx. 3,600 m) in the late afternoon to catch the sunset.

Day 3: Geech to Gondar

After breakfast, trek from Geech across the highland plateau toward Imet Gogo (3,900 m), widely considered the most spectacular viewpoint in the entire park. Take in 360-degree views across the sheer cliffs and jagged peaks.

Trek down from the viewpoint to meet your vehicle at the nearest road access point. Drive back through the highlands and Debark, arriving in Gondar by late afternoon or evening, where the tour concludes.
