My partner and me hiked across the Bale Mountains for 10 days and were so happy to be guided by Mohamed, best tour guide (also best arabic football commentator :D) EVER. He has so much knowledge about wildlife, you can easily tell his job is his passion. Also great birding knowledge. Don't really get some of the reviews here: Yeah, hiking can be exhausting and nature can be windy and cold or sunburn you. What do you expect? Wildlife will not come to visit you in a five star hotel, you have to go wild for it :). And Bale will reward you: We saw the wolves, even pups, eagles, vultures, a serval cat, nyalas, warthogs, antilopes, mole rats, bale vervets, colobus monkeys, baboons and millions of endemic birds and plants. Mohamed definitely knows the all secret spots and was always eager to avoid the crowded areas which we really appreciated. I will never forget our funny evenings at the camp fire and Obsenet Lodge! Dema dema dema... Galatomi for everything Mohamed. I'd give SIX stars if I could!

Lucky me, I got to visit beautiful Lake Wench again twice this year and this time I actually went in for a swim! Amazing! Both times, we were travelling as usual with Dagi of Quest Ethiopia Tours (licensed operator) who we highly recommend and once more we camped overnight so we could enjoy the sense of peace and the wonderful views. (I have to warn you that it does get very cold at night so take warm clothes if you are camping there.) Wenchi is a crater lake and is situated around 3000m above sea level which means that you may feel short of breath if you’re walking uphill! (It is possible to hire mules though so don’t let this put you off!) If you have the time you can walk right around the lake but it takes 5-6 hours which sadly we didn't have the time for on this visit either….so much else to see and do! However, we engaged with the locals during the afternoon and the next morning we visited one of their tukuls for a coffee ceremony, during which we learned more of their fascinating culture by way of Dagi translating. I found this experience particularly rewarding as rather than just seeing the local people from a distance, we got to interact with them which was a real privilege. As usual, it was thanks to Dagi that we could experience this. There are lots of other hiking options at Wenchi and the views from the top track are absolutely stunning. There are good bird watching opportunities here and the lake has several small islands, one of which has a Monastery. You will probably have to engage the service of a local guide but I’ve always found them to be very friendly and it is good to support the local people. It’s also possible to visit here as a day-trip from Addis as I did on my previous visit. Briefly, we have traveled with Quest Ethiopia Tours to many parts of Ethiopia. Contact Dagi who will suggest various options to suit your preferences and will always manage to come up with an interesting and packed itinerary. He speaks excellent English, (and other languages), is respectful, very knowledgeable and enormous fun to travel with! What are you waiting for!
