Erta Ale
At Semera, you’ll pile into the Toyota Landcruiser that will take you into the Danakil in convoy. You’ll begin the drive into the Danakil Depression at around 9AM. The roads leading out of Semera are smooth and asphalted, and as you drive further out of town there are some wonderful views of the Afar landscape.
As you drive further towards the Afdera Town (Salt Lake), the roads get rougher until you reach the Danakil desert. Here, the roads are a maze of solidified lava, rock and sand with an occasional palm lined oasis. You will stop for lunch before continuing to the base camp of the Erta Ale volcano. The drive from Semera to Dodom is around 7 hours.
Your cooking team will wait you prepare dinner. As the sun begins to dip behind the horizon, you begin the 1 and half-hour hike up Erta Ale. You’ll reach the crater rim around 7:00PM, where the fiery lava lake awaits and You’ll spend the sometime on the volcano and you will descend to the camp site then you will be served your dinner.
