1 actionchallenge in This incredible trek takes us into the Simien Mountains, from the market town of Debark to the barren summit of Ras Dashen at 4,533m. It is a fantastic, unforgettable ten day challenge across stunning mountain scenery. Together with our guides and muleteers, we set off on our journey following a typical, rollercoaster path which leads us down into the Michotis Valley, up the other side, down to the Jin Bahir river crossing and back up to Geech where we camp for the night. As we continue our hike, far up into the n Highlands, we see many impressive afro-alpine plants and are treated to stunning views across the Lowlands, characterised by their rocky spires and mesas. The area is rich in wildlife and will hopefully deliver us a glimpse of the rare Walia ibex, Simien fox or the Gelada baboons as they scamper about in the surrounding vegetation. We make our way over the high Bwahit pass (4,200m), enjoy lunch at Chiro Liba village school and descend into Mesheha River valley (2,850m). Each night we sleep under canvas at our camps where we tuck into hearty meals to keep our energy levels up for our spectacular trekking days. Our goal is the summit of Ras Dashen (4,533m). It s a long day of trekking as we contour a number of steep gullies until we reach a high rocky plateau dominated by three peaks. From here it s an easy scramble up to the top of Africa s fourth highest mountain. Together we stand, high above and look out over the barren rocky mountain below us. We feel an incredible sense of achievement that will stay with us forever. Our last day is spent in Gondar where we explore its Italian piazza and historic Royal Enclosure before having a special meal together to celebrate our fantastic achievement. at a glance Activity: Trekking Location: Simien Mountains, Duration: 10 Days / 5 days trekking Difficulty: Moderate Distance: 80 km Group size: trip highlights Reach the summit of Ras Dashen (4,533m) Addis Ababa Spot the rare Walia ibex See afro-alpine plants Cross the Bwahit Pass (4,200m) Experience an n Coffee Ceremony Explore the town of Gondar Action Challenge have been leading inspirational team adventures across the world for individuals, private groups, charities and corporate clients since Our trips enable people to experience the world s most exhilarating locations, often in aid of charity.
