Überblick
10-Day Simien Mountains & Ras Dashen Expedition
Full Simien crossing: classic corridor, Bwahit Pass, Ambiko, Ras Dashen summit (~4,550 m in this detailed version), then the quieter eastern transect via Sona, Mekarebya and Mulit to Adi Arkay vehicle pickup and return to Gondar. The defining long expedition for travellers who want the summit and the remote side of the range beyond the familiar escarpment circuit.
