Simien Lodge sits on the edge of the Simien Mountains escarpment, among the highest hotels anywhere in Africa, offering dramatic views over one of Ethiopia’s most spectacular landscapes.
Stone-built tukul-style rooms with fireplaces, each with views over the surrounding highland plateau.
A well-regarded dining programme served with panoramic mountain views.
Guided treks across the Simien Mountains’ escarpment trails, tracking gelada baboon and, with luck, the endemic Ethiopian wolf.
The Simien Mountains hold the largest population of gelada baboon on Earth, alongside the endangered Walia ibex and endemic Ethiopian wolf.
The escarpment’s sheer 1,000-metre drops give a dramatic backdrop for photographing gelada troops grazing at the cliff edge.
The lodge supports Simien Mountains National Park’s conservation programmes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site protecting several endemic Ethiopian species.
