My experience exploring the Bale Mountains during the rainy season with our guide was nothing short of spectacular. Despite the weather, we had an unforgettable adventure thanks to our knowledgeable and attentive guide. Our guide sahlie beza was exceptional in navigating the challenges of the rainy season. Their extensive knowledge of the area and its wildlife enriched our journey, offering insights into the unique ecosystem and its inhabitants. June in the Bale Mountains can be rainy, but our guide ensured that we were well-prepared. They adjusted our itinerary to make the most of the weather windows, ensuring that we still had opportunities to explore and witness the beauty of the landscape between showers. Despite the rain, we were fortunate to encounter a variety of wildlife native to the Bale Mountains. Our guide's expertise allowed us to spot diverse bird species, and with luck, we caught glimpses of the endemic Ethiopian wolf and other mammals that thrive in the mountainous terrain. The Bale Mountains are stunning year-round, and even in the rainy season, the landscapes were breathtaking. We hiked through lush green valleys, past cascading waterfalls swollen with rain, and were treated to dramatic cloud formations swirling around the peaks. I highly recommend visiting the Bale Mountains with excellent trekking team during the rainy season for a memorable and rewarding adventure.highly recommend sahlie and discover simien tour sahlie.simien@gmail.com

I arrived from hawassa via Shasheme to Dodola which is closer than Dinsho. There there is a guide association that can organise for the next day a treck on the Dodola - treck wich is basically a trail with camps designed 20 years ago by some german guy. I just got food and a guide and we walked the mountains for 4 days, sleeping in bed in basic camps or at some familly's place. it can be more or less days, you can hire a cook or hoses. You ll look for your breath as this happens over 3000 meters but you ll get used quickly. Baboons, hyennas, white tail monkeyx and really nice endemic flora and trees . Ayano my guide was fluent in english and has encyclopeduc knowledge on the ebndemic species we walked through. contacts : i just arrived and f afternoon at the mountain bale hotel wich is more like a restaurant but where you can meet shibiru ( who speacks french) who can organise what you want for the next day. or you can try to contact them before : Shibiru : shebrumarifo2@gmail.com Ayano Abraham : +251 91 334 8375

We were there only two days but it was amazing. In Dinsho at the entrance of the park plenty of animals and next day we were on a car tour and saw Ethiopian Wolfe on the Sanetti Plateau and breathtaking forest on a way to waterfall in Harenna Forest. We were with Ibrahim guide: +251 91 225 5345 He was really cool guy and very good guide. We paid 3000 ETB / day for an entrance fees, his guidance and accommodation in his camping + 100 USD for a car tour.

We were in Ethiopia for two weeks and it was an incredible surprise. A wonderful country, rich in history, culture and extraordinary nature. We spent two unforgettable days in the Bale Mountains, where our Guide, Ebrahim +251912255345, was able to accompany us among the beauties of this place, explaining with kindness and competence the wealth of flora and fauna present. With him we also closely warned the very rare Ethiopian wolf and it was an experience we will never forget. The Bale Mountains deserved a few more days... We hope to return soon. Thank you Ebrahim!
