Have a great view of Yerer Mountain from the street near the Bishoftu or Debre Ziet town.

After driving 45 km east of Addis Ababa, stop at the crater lake of Bishoftu (Debre Ziet) which is remarkable for its scenic beauty and being the second deepest lake in Ethiopia.

Have lunch at Metehara town, and proceed driving to Awash NP with a stop at the saline Lake of Beseka – set in a unique landscape surrounded with black basalt lava remnants and strangely increasing in size and water volume. Around Metehara, visit one of the villages of the Oromo people for cultural experience and to learn how to bake Enjera – the Ethiopian National Bread.

Walk for about an hour around Awash Falls Lodge in the Awash National Park to visit the magnificent Awash River Falls and to see crocodiles, baboons and different low land water birds.
