Suggested Itinerary
Ababa – Mekelle – Hamedela (Danakil Depression)
Take a morning flight from Addis Ababa to Mekelle. Upon arrival, drive to the Danakil Depression via Berhale. The journey marks the beginning of one of the world’s most geologically active and inhospitable environments.

Witness long lines of camels loaded with salt, offering a glimpse into one of Ethiopia’s oldest trade routes.
