A 3-hour drive from the capital of Addis Ababa, Wenchi - situated at the base of an extinct volcano, is the beautiful legacy of a once-powerful volcano erupting in the Tertiary period of the Cenozoic Era. The volcano that erupted about 1000 years ago left an asymmetric caldera of rock which is now covered in lush green vegetation. The whole crater contains a large lake with small islands, hot mineral springs, waterfalls, and beautiful valleys and farmland. An old monastery with a church that is positioned on one of the lake islands also makes the spot more enticing and mesmerizing.Wenchi Crater Lake is a piece of paradise on earth owing to its breathtaking landscape and beautiful scenic areas. The place that had the most powerful volcanoes once has been blessed now with a lot of natural endowments, hot springs, and waterfalls among others.

Major activities are Horse riding, Local Boat paddling, Hiking / Trekking, Bathing in the natural hot spring, and Camping.

Cần Quan Tâm

Take a day trip to the northern Crater Lake Wenchi. Here, we have a 5-6 hour hike (or riding tour) through the beautiful countryside. You'll walk down to the crater lake before crossing the lake by boat. On a small island, we'll visit a monastery and church. From the opposite side of the lake, we start our way back through a lovely green valley with numerous clear water springs and small streams. The route takes us past corn mills powered by water and are still being used today for processing teff, a local type of grain. In the late afternoon, we return to Addis Ababa.

We had a great time with our guided tour and boat trip. the place is so natural, peaceful and beautiful. mid blowing full of nature with cold fresh crater lake, river, hot and sparkling water sprints, birds,colobus monkey. The place is must visit place for day and longer with camping between October and May during the rainy rainy season the walking road access is difficult and slippery. the place is nice for short hiking, mountain biking, and swimming. The road is bad but it is under contraction and expected to be finalized soon.

How lucky was I to be connected with Alex as my personal guide while I was in Addis . Not only did he agree to meet me the day I arrived with only a few hours notice, he spent three days with me to offer a comprehensive experience. I was visiting during Dave and alex me advised on where to go each day, including personalized Dave experiences. He even brought fireworks to the Dave celebration for me. His in depth knowledge of where to go and most importantly when, customizing each day to my personal interests was so appreciated. We explored the city by night, If you are looking for the perfect guided experience I could not more highly recommend Alam and his colleagues more — truly. He takes a lot of personal pride in showcasing Addis. He was on time and has an impeccable knowledge of how to navigate the city by air conditioned car. You will not meet a better guide — personal or as a group.
