7-Day Kafta Sheraro Wilderness Trek & Safari

Venture into one of Ethiopia’s most remote and untouched national parks — Kafta Sheraro, tucked away in Tigray near the Eritrean border. This vast park protects over 5,000 square kilometers of savannah, woodland, and riverine habitat, and is part of the Africa-wide elephant migration corridor.

Few travelers ever set foot here, making Kafta Sheraro the perfect destination for those who want to go far off the beaten path. Trekking and walking safaris offer intimate encounters with elephants, roan antelope, kudu, lions, and an astonishing diversity of birdlife. Seasonal wetlands along the Tekeze River attract tens of thousands of migratory birds, making it one of the best birding areas in Ethiopia.

This adventure is more than a safari — it’s about experiencing true wilderness. Nights are spent in mobile camps or eco-lodges, surrounded by the sounds of the savannah. Expert local rangers and guides lead each step, ensuring both safety and authenticity.

✨ Why This Trip Matters:

Kafta Sheraro is Ethiopia’s least-known big wilderness park, yet it holds one of Africa’s great natural wonders — the cross-border elephant migration. Combined with vast savannahs, rich birdlife, and an absence of crowds, it offers a safari experience that feels raw, authentic, and untouched. For explorers who want something truly different from Simien or Bale, this is Ethiopia at its wildest.
