The Danakil Depression formed from the continental drift of the African and Asian tectonic plates. As the plates drifted apart at a rate of 1-2 cm per year, they leave behind a geological depression, known as the Danakil Depression (or Afar Depression).
The Danakil Depression sits at the triple junction between three tectonic plates.
The Afar Depression spans Djibouti, Eritrea, and the Afar region of Ethiopia. The Northern part of this depression is the Danakil Depression, which sits more than 100m below sea level and contains some of the world’s most extraterrestrial landscapes.
Beyond its fascinating geology, the Danakil holds the keys to some of biology’s most profound questions. In 1974, researchers found the remains of ‘Lucy’ in the Danakil Depression, an early ancestor of modern humans dating back 3.2 million years (now on display at the National Museum in Addis Ababa).

This 3-day tour is a raw, bucket-list adventure through the hottest place on Earth. Ethio Backpacker successfully delivered unforgettable access to the kaleidoscopic Dallol sulfur springs, the salt flats, and the surreal night trek to witness the lava lake of Erta Ale Volcano. Logistically, the tour was well-executed: the Land Cruisers were reliable, our English-speaking guide was excellent, and essential needs like water and simple meals were met. However, this is a budget 'backpacker' experience—expect very basic, open-air camping and minimal facilities. Be prepared for the physical demands and challenging comfort level.

I spent an unforgettable 3 days in the desert. 2night-3day tour is enough to visit main spots including Dallol Volcano, Erta Ale Volcano, Salt lake, and local village. The driver and guide are so kind and I could take many picture on the way. Thank you everyone in this tour!
