Day-by-day route
Departure from Addis Ababa We begin our day early with a short and scenic drive west of Addis Ababa to Suba Menagesha Forest, one of Ethiopia’s oldest and most magical natural forests. It’s a peaceful retreat, rich in biodiversity and known for its towering indigenous trees, fresh air, and gentle hiking trails.
Forest Hike & Wildlife Watching Upon arrival, we’ll stretch and begin a guided forest hike, walking under the dense green canopy and listening to the sounds of nature. The trail is peaceful and refreshing, with chances to spot colobus monkeys, native birds, and even bushbucks. Along the way, we’ll stop at natural viewpoints, breathe deeply, and feel fully present in the moment.
Whether it’s a packed picnic or a locally prepared meal, this is a time to share laughs, stories, and food in good company.
Group Games & Quiet Time in Nature In the afternoon, you’ll have free time to relax, journal, meditate, or enjoy fun group activities and games. You may choose to simply lie under the trees, feel the cool breeze, and connect with the silence of the forest.
Return to Addis Ababa As the sun starts to soften, we’ll pack up and begin our drive back to Addis Ababa, refreshed, grounded, and reconnected with nature’s rhythm.
