-
Day 1 - Reach Hamed Ela & Visit Danakil Depression
Meet your Ethiopian tour guide and drive to Hamed Ela via Berhale where the camel caravan stops before proceeding to the northern highlands.
See the Danakil Depression, which is one of the most inhospitable regions of the world, yet it is full of eye-catching colours because of its Sulphur springs.
Camp at Hamed Ela and head to see the beautiful sunset at Dallol before retiring to your room.
-
Day 2 - Visit Ragad (Asebo) & Dallol
Drive to Ragad (Asebo) to see the salt mining and continue to Dallol to visit a landscape formed by volcanic activity, which is the hottest place on Earth where only merchants can go frequently to stock up on salt.
Visit Lake Assal, which is a saline lake and is the lowest point in Africa and proceed to follow the salt-laden camel caravans along with walking with the Afar people.
Drive back to Hamed Ela, which is a small village near Lake Assal and return to Mekele.
