During the trek we slept in spacious tents. Staff cooks prepared our food. Trekkers who have traveled with us to the Himalayas or Andes will find the Ethiopian style is simpler and more basic, but we ate well and stayed healthy for the duration of the trip. I found the trek more difficult than I had originally expected. You should personally carry all the water you need for the day as refill sites for water are unreliable.
Staff prepare ample boiled water at morning and evening meals.
Bring at least a 2 liter water bottle. Local bottled water is all carbonated. Our original itinerary had to be modified because recent floods had washed out the road between Debark and Axum. Instead, we drove back to Gondar and flew to Lalibela. Lalibela is the site of Ethiopia's famous rock churches.
