Ambiko is at 3140 h and is, so to speak, the base camp for climbing Ras Dashen. There are not yet many tourists who hike through the spectacular Simien National Park with the aim of climbing Ras Dashen, the more than 4500 m high and highest mountain in Ethiopia, for this reason this place is still very original. When we came back from the climb, we were greeted with singing, dancing and flowering branches in the camp.
