Embark on a 4-day trekking adventure in the Simien Mountains. Enjoy the convenience of round-trip transportation from Gondar, and take in the stunning views of the Ethiopian landscape.

Day 1: Gondar to Sankaber
Depart early morning from Gondar to Debarq. In Debarq, arrange your visit with the park office and receive an Ethiopian scout and guide, who will drive you to the park to arrive at Sankaber. You can either drive all the way to Sankaber or have the car drop you off near Buyit Ras for a short hike.

If you choose to hike, you will take in beautiful views of the landscape and the endless mountain ridges, and you will likely see some gelada baboons. When you arrive in Sankaber, you will be met with your supplies. Sankaber will be the first campsite on your trip.

Day 2: Sankaber to Geech Camp
From Sankaber, begin hiking following the ridge and look out over the foothills 800m down. From the ridge, descend into the valley and view the Jinbar River plunging into the Geech Abyss. After some time at the waterfall, continue to Geech village, where you will find your second campsite.

Day 3: Geech to Chennek
After breakfast, start on a 7-8 hour hike of the best views in the Simien Mountains. En route, pass through Imet Gogo. Here, you will have reached an altitude of 3,926m and can view the fantastic landscape from 360 degrees. You can see the canyon below, distant ridges, and seemingly never-ending valleys at this height and viewpoint.

After Imet Gogo, hike to the viewpoint at Innateye Valley at an altitude of 4,070m. Lunch will be here, and then you will descend to Chennek (3,600m) for your third campsite.

Day 4: Chennek to Gondar
Eat breakfast at the campsite. Go for a 2-hour hike up to the Buwahit Peak. You will stand on the second-highest peak in the Simien Mountains (4,430m). Here is where many visitors can see the endemic animals like the Walia Ibex and Ethiopian Red Fox.

After spending time at the peak, hike back down to Chennek for lunch and grab transportation back to Debark/Gondar.
