Ethiopia Suggested Trips

Beautiful rock hewn churches. Really hot compared to the rest of Ethiopia

Lots of castles in Gondar, it is cold here though as is much of Ethiopia. One of my favorite cities in Africa though

Stop off between Addis Ababa and Lalibela

This is not really a town you go to without a good reason, I came here whilst en route to the Sudanese refugee camps 100km away near the border. The town is more Sudanese than Ethiopian and as it is out of the highlands the weather is much hotter than the rest of the country. Most of the people here are Nuer, but there are various other groups in the area too. I visited in 2000 and I believe than the security situation has become a lot more of a problem in recent years.

Beautiful lake. the water is good for ur skin. the sun can be very hot in the summer. also be careful when swimming, don't go out to far. and watch out for the mix of hot and cold currents.
