The Simien Mountains, referred to as the ‘chess pieces of the deities’ by a poet, showcase Africa’s most striking mountain landscape. They loom over steep ravines, river basins, and expansive fields extending up to Eritrea.
Gondar to Sankabar
Simien Mountains National Park - Drive from Gondar to Debark. Here we obtain a permit from the Park headquarters and collect our obligatory scout before continuing to Sankabar (3250m ASL) for the first overnight camp. An early start is needed as the drive from Gondar takes a 2-3 hours. The trek begins at Buytras (Simien Lodge), taking about 3 – 4 hours to walk to the Sankabar campsite is usually possible. During the walk there’s a good chance of seeing your first Gelada baboons.
