Half-day excursions

DEBRE ZEYIT

Beautiful area with many small lakes, very nice excursion if you don’t want to go far… About one hour driving to get there. Possibility to swim in a nice swimming-pool, and/or to eat along the lakes. Beautiful nature, birds etc.

GEFERSA POTTERY

This is a very interesting project, helping needy women, creating beautiful pottery and garden furniture. There is a possibility to attend a traditional coffee ceremony or to drink tea for free in the magnificent garden and a possibility to buy their pottery items. Beautiful nature all around. About one hour driving…

ENTOTO

Nice place to go to if you don’t feel to drive a long way. The road goes high on the Entoto hill, where you can see women running down the hill, carrying huge eucalyptus wood on their backs. Once you are at the top, beautiful view over the whole city, and possibility to visit an old church and Menelik's Palast. This is also the place where the famous Ethiopian runners train everyday…
