   You will be picked up from your hotel in Gonder around 8 am for the 2-hour drive to Debark in a 4×4. The road until Debark is paved. At Debark, you will sign in at the park headquarters, pick up your guide and scout, and head up into the mountains (by 4×4). The road continues all the way to the first camp at Sankaber, but you’ll be dropped off on the way for a leisurely three-hour acclimatization hike. The stunning views hit you as soon as you get out of the vehicle as you walk along the ridge. There will be time to stop for a picnic lunch, and after a short but demanding climb (at this altitude) to Sankaber, you’ll be met, as every day on this trek, with a tray of fresh coffee, tea, and snacks.

Overnight Sankobar, Tents will be set up at designated camping sites

   You'll trek to Geech via the spectacular Jinbar waterfall, a highlight of the journey. The trek will take approximately 5-6 hours. After descending to the Jinbar Wenz, which feeds the waterfall, you may spot klipspringer and bushbuck in the steep, rocky, and wooded slopes, while troops of Gelada Baboons roam the dusty fields for roots. The highlight of the trek from Sankaber to Geech is Jinbar Falls, an incredible 500m sheer drop. From the viewpoint opposite, you can watch falcons, augur buzzards, and lammergeier bearded vultures soar on the thermals below. Just before reaching Geech campsite, there is a wonderful opportunity to visit one of the traditional village houses for home-roasted coffee and injera. Geech Camp itself is set on a grassy plateau with stunning sunset views.

Overnight Geech, Tents will be set up at designated camping sites
