About this event

Dive into a 125 km trail in the heart of northern Ethiopia, around Gondar, the ancient capital. Five stages in nine days push you to higher altitudes with rocky trails and cliffside sections, offering grand landscapes and breathtaking views. Wake up at dawn to reach the starts and discover an immersive sporting adventure, where altitude and exceptional nature shape the course.

Want to gain some height ⛰ and traverse stunning landscapes on a 125 km trail? Set off to Ethiopia 🇪🇹 for a race at the heart of nature, up in the mountains. Meet in the northern part of the country to reach Gondar, the country’s former 👑 capital, replaced by Addis Ababa in 1886, and yes, no one is irreplaceable! 🤷‍♀️ The Treg Simien Trail takes place in March, in the Amhara region to offer you a sporty journey 🏃 and unique discoveries. Take a deep breath, but save some for the peaks, and pack your bags for the flight! 🧳 Because the main guest of the trip is indeed the altitude 💨, which will also give you breathtaking viewpoints.

Five stages over nine days 🗓, the announced plan to enjoy a perfect moment. For the first days, wake-ups ⏰ are at dawn to reach the different trail starting points. But don’t panic, Ethiopia is among the top 5 largest coffee producers ☕ in the world, so you’ll have plenty of energy to power you through the day! 👯 Get ready, because the trails are rocky 🪨 and some sections run along a cliff edge, so a fully immersive experience awaits there. As the days progress, the landscapes will become grander 🌟, just like the altitude 📈 that climbs gradually, perfect for acclimating well. Then a US immersion could be on the cards? During your journey, you’ll set foot in the rival of the Grand Canyon of the Colorado 🏜, the Simien National Park. An awe-inspiring place where massive erosion has created a unique natural site 🌱, with peaks, valleys and sheer cliffs.

All along the trail, you’ll encounter animals and your tent ⛺ at night will close. Ethiopia is a country home to many animals, some quite rare. The most iconic is the Walia ibex, a goat 🐐 from the mountains that lives only here! Given its horns, you won’t be able to miss it. The Gelada baboon and the Abyssinian wolf 🐺 will also be nearby, so get your bingo card ❌ ready to spot these nature’s exceptions! Don’t forget to include the Ethiopian culinary specialty, the injera

For honoring the great Haile Gebrselassie, Olympic and World 🥇 in athletics, you’ll be among the first to run on these historic Ethiopian lands, which he holds dear! An ideal terrain to enjoy your trail! 😆
