About This Tour

Escape the city and immerse yourself in the breathtaking natural beauty of Wenchi Crater Lake, located about 150 km west of Addis Ababa. This volcanic lake is surrounded by lush highlands, waterfalls, hot springs, and small islands — offering one of Ethiopia’s most serene and scenic landscapes.

After a morning drive from Addis, enjoy a guided hike or horse ride down to the lake, passing by farms and traditional villages. Take a boat trip to visit the historic Cherkos Monastery on the island, then return through picturesque trails and enjoy a local lunch with fresh air and stunning views.
