After centuries of erosion, the landscape of the Simien Mountains has developed into a truly spectacular, unique hikers paradise.
We were very excited when our car drove into Simien Mountains National Park. After travelling around Ethiopia on buses, we felt an urgent need to be in nature and to find some peace of mind. At Sankabar Camp, we disembarked, left our luggage, and started walking with our guide and scout. The guide was so bad at English that we sent him back to Sankabar. We soon reached the edge of the escarpment, from where we had a dizzying sight to the lower plains lying some 1,000 metres below us. This was the result of massive erosion over a long time; we continued walking right on the edge with spectacular views down below.
