What to expect
Wonchi Crater Lake – Ethiopia’s Hidden Paradise Location. The Lake is situated in the Oromia region of Ethiopia, about 150 km west of Addis Ababa, near Ambo. It is nestled in a volcanic crater at an altitude of around 3,000 meters (9,800 feet) above sea level. Here are some of the top things to do at Wonchi Crater Lake.
Kocho Preparation in Wenchi Village, Ethiopia What is Kocho? Kocho is a thick, slightly sour flatbread made from the pulp of the enset plant (Ensete ventricosum), a drought-resistant plant widely grown in Ethiopia. It is an important staple food, often eaten with kitfo (minced raw meat), ayib (cottage cheese), or gomen (collard greens). Wenchi Village can experience kocho-making firsthand, from harvesting enset to tasting the final dish, while exploring the natural beauty of the Wenchi Crater Lake. Please note: This experience is organized for groups of 4 or more people.
Boat Ride on the Lake, Take a traditional wooden boat ride to explore the lake and visit the monastery on one of its islands.
Hiking & Trekking, Hike around the crater for breathtaking views of the lake and surrounding hills.
Horseback Riding, Rent a horse to explore the scenic landscapes, making the journey easier and more enjoyable. Visiting the Monastery, Visit the historic Wonchi Monastery, located on an island in the lake, and learn about its religious and cultural significance.
Wildlife & Bird Watching, Hot Springs Experience and Relax in the natural hot springs found near the lake, known for their therapeutic properties.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
