4 Days Mt Simien hike is a medium hike that follows the edge of the escarpment to encounter endemic wildlife including the gelada baboon, Ethiopian Simien fox.

Day 1: Gondar – Debark – Sankaber

We pick you from your hotel in Gondar and drive to Debark, the headquarters of the Simien Mountains National Park. It is at this point, we meet the local trek guide and the scouts. Our 4×4 will become handy to take us to Sankaber, our first camp, but there is an option of trekking the final stretch. The seven {7} kilometres can be covered in about 2½hrs. The Sankaber camp rests at an altitude of 3,200m.

You will be stunned by the views of the jagged landscape once you reach over 3,000m above sea level. Dine by a campfire as you exchange stories with the crew and other trekkers.     

Day 2: Sankaber to Geech

After breakfast, we start a full day hike along the trail on the ridge. The spectacular view of Genbar falls dropping a sheer 500m across the ridge. The flora and fauna are worth seeing. Regular sightings on this trail are of Gelada Baboons, Klipspringer and Ibex. After covering 15km we reach our camp at Geech after 7-8 hours. The camp is known to have the best sunset views.   

Day 3: Geech to Inayte to Chennek   

After breakfast, start our trek to the incredible Imet Gogo, standing at 4,000m Inayte to Chennek. The trail follows the edge of the ridge presenting mesmeric panoramic views of the entire Simien range. A great forest of Giant Hazel and open grasslands as we approach Inayte for yet another great view. Descend to Chennek camp for dinner and overnight. The 15km will make our trail and cover it in 7-8hrs.  

Day 4: Chennek to Mt Buahit

After breakfast, follow the footpaths off the road alongside a stream that draws its water from the mountain. Our target is the Buahit peak at 4,430m above sea level, which is the 3^rd highest peak in Ethiopia. The route is quite steep but occasional breaks and rests to admire the sceneries. After 5-6hours you finish the trek and be picked by our vehicle to your next destination.
