One of the main attractions of the park for visitors is the landscape. Tourists will be able to embark on a multi-day hike, including night camping, to discover the park. This trek is a truly immersive experience and starts with Buyit Ras before ending in Chenek. There are attractions such as Jinbar Waterfall and the famous Imet Gogo lookout. Those who can climb Mount Buahit will enjoy the stunning views and will have the chance to spot Ethiopian wolves. Those who want to start other treks can be seduced by the path of the city of Debark to Chenek or the route of Sankaber to Adi Arkay. Another important attraction of the park is the rare animals of the region. Moreover, this is one of the main reasons this site is protected and classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In the park, there is the Ethiopian wolf, also known as the Simien fox. Then there is the Walia ibex, the gelada monkey, the Anubis and Hamadryas baboons, the klipspringer antelope, or the golden jackal. But that's only part of it since visitors will also be able to observe more than 130 species of birds, including mountain raptors such as the bearded vulture, the Verreaux eagle, or the rabbit falcon, among others. Going to Simien Mountains National Park is a unique opportunity to experience local life. Although there are campsites along the main ridge of the park for hikers, they will also be able to visit more remote and less visited campsites. They will then pass through rural farmlands, valleys, or camps and learn a lot about the lives of the region's inhabitants. Travelers will also enjoy the incredible hospitality of the locals. ◄
