The superb wild Chebera Churchura Park is located in the southwest of Ethiopia. The human footprint is still absent. This 12 hectare park is crossed by the Zigna River, a tributary of the Omo River, and has several lakes and waterfalls including a hot spring.

Chebera Churchura Park is home to numerous elephants who live in a wild environment whose lush vegetation is conducive to their existence.

We also see herds of buffalo.

Raised in a national park in 2005, the primary objective of this park is the protection of elephants

Chebera Churchura provides refuge for 37 species of large mammals. Besides elephants, the park is home to populations of buffalo, greater kudu, Defassa waterbuck, lions, leopards, serval cats, hippos and warthogs. It also has 140 species of birds, 5 of which are endemic to the country.

A few days or more, camping to set off in the early morning to discover the riches of the park. Two eco-lodges are installed in the park if your preference is for these accommodations.

A safari in the Chebera Churchura park can be combined with the Jimma region and its coffee plantations or the ethnic groups of the Omo valley and more particularly the Surma.
