How about a trip to Ethiopia West

Western Ethiopia couldn’t be much more different to its desolate, arid eastern counterpart. Here the land is green. Very green, with forests and towns in the foothills of rolling hills in every direction. The majority of towns are small and have minimal facilities for those passing through, but the larger cities of Jimma or Nekemte will cater to all but the most luxuriant of needs. A 5* luxury break here really isn’t the reason you should visit this part of the world, instead, get the walking boots / mountain bike ready and be prepared for a hard slog and some calorie burning.. and to feast your senses on “proper” Ethiopia as lived by locals for many, many years!
