Direction Map to the Alluring Past


Bees' Cliff 14 requires caution in the canyon but assists
with the wide map loop surrounding the gentle and
fascinating tributary 36 to the Canyon and 41-42.

The Path to the Gorgeous River-Dell
The hidden path between the Sanctuary and the gorge runs attractively behind Entoto Kidane Mehret (32) in a concealed curve below its wall and passes through a small part of the village before the path  (5) opens along a deep ravine and finishes with a downhill towards a traditional bridge. This bridge crossing over the sculptural gorge within the valley [A] with the cosy picnic source (19) is also the natural start for more dramatic hikes towards the high plateau by the first passing point (37) or (19).

Shops for Picnics and Adventures
The most necessary for the Park's experience, picnics, and candy shop is across the bus or taxi stop from the communities (1), (43), and (Z). For those very early in the dawn, there is a small shop at the beginning of the Juniper forest, just next to the health spring with its associated buildings (31). Restaurants and amenities at Entoto Kidane Mehret (1), Entoto Maryam (43) and Entoto Park (Z): 



A. The Character of Entoto Kidane Mehret's Valley

The square [A] serves as a directed and facilitating figure to more easily find points (5), (19) and (37), which are located and form the valley at Entoto Kidane Mehret (32). This area [A] begins most of the following hiking trails described.


B. The Invitation to the Crossroad of Wilderness

The still, gently upward hike shown within circle (B) includes points (35)(38), and (39) and constitutes both a crossroads of somewhat wild paths and a beautiful rise on a ledge of some metres threshold. This crossroads is located just to the right of point (38) - (B), but regardless of the hiking paths within the loop point (B), all of these will soon contact the continued walk towards the higher positions.


The Assistance To Direction and Orientation

 loop surrounding points 36 and 41-42

The Intended Clockwork Of Loop (B)

While this type of orientation assistance is compatible with visitors to foreign habits, other requirements are demanded to fulfil the tradition of the native population, who prefer to use their own orientation in the landscape of the revered past.


Tools Of Orientation Within the Map Circle (B)
When considering the circle (B), the possibility arises of using it as a directional pointer of the type that uses the traditional dial of the pointer's intended tip as an excellent tool for finding otherwise hidden objects. Thus, the intended end set at 3:30 shows a pleasantly elevated area above the field (39) within the map loop (B). This metre-raised ledge is the site of several unique and older native Juniper procera trees. These furrowed Juniper trees tower, awe-inspiring, dominating the surroundings like a mighty crown on the slope above the field (39).


A Charming and Hilly Landscape.

When the circle (B) with its intended pointer reaches its full extent at 4:30, it points to an area just south of the field (39). This rather wild and wavy slope is a fantastic area with a certain number of native Podocarpus trees, all muscularly proudly posing in antique motion on this hilly southern slope. The high plateau's abyss, deeply beneath Bees' Cliff (14), requires caution in the Canyon but is assisted by the wide map loop (14) surrounding the gentle and fascinating points (36) and 41-42.


Nature & Trees from the Historical Era


Podocarpus falcatus (P. gracilior ) 

Mighty Podocarpus Trees Next to the Paths

The intended direction indicator within the map circle (B) allows a method to be used here with a limited length in the intended dial. This method also allows distinguishing objects more centrally located on the intended clockwork. Consequently, as this intended pointer reaches 60% of its entire length, and at four o'clock, it becomes possible to find a magnificent native Podocarpus tree to the left of the hiking trail.

Podocarpus trees, near the wild meadow with the farmhouse.
Some Podocarpus trees from a previous era appear admirably muscular, furrowed around the extensive farmhouse area (39) within the map circle (B). On the elevated ledge just above the farmhouse (39), large Juniperus procera trees tower on the upper hillside. Furthermore, the path turns slightly to the right towards the location (16), just at the high plateau's outer edge and with many incredible stately Juniper trees.



A Grandiose Viewpoint with Exciting Adventures

 The resting place from the era of dreams

Arriving at the high viewpoint and the outermost plateau ledge (16), this seductively blooming fragrance adventure appears, despite the challenges, as entirely captivating. Although this mountain exploration offers a somewhat thrilling experience with a hint of demands, all this since the substantial rise in the mountain's southern hillside provides several wonderful and exciting rests with magnificent sceneries. Therefore, this highland route offers an excursion with its typical mountain's tempting highland air and enchantingly harsh terrain.


Cliff-Hiding Ruins and Furrowed Trees From Lost Aeons

 However, for visitors with active outdoor life, this mountain's undulated hillside allures in pleasure for exploring historical surprises with old Italian fortifications (38) - (B) and trees of a surprisingly dignified furrowed patina. For those who want a wild and mysterious, Juniper forest is a nearly 50-year-old forest of wild and original Juniperus procera trees just east of Point (16). This indigenous Juniperus procera forest (40) is close but still hidden behind a gentle ridge of this viewpoint (16) and on the eastern slope. This hidden forest (40) and the native Juniper trees in this picture provide a unique insight into how nature emerged before the Eucalyptus trees were introduced from Australia to Ethiopia over 100 years ago.



The Wild Forest of the Ancient
This picture shows native Juniper trees and the plateau ledge No. 16 view.
A little behind the camera's typical view of the dim-capped Capital is a group of magnificent and powerful Juniperus procera trees. These indigenous Juniper trees are unique and appear to have an origin from a past culture, and are here very near, just some steps uphill towards Bees' Cliff (14).


** Caution - Enchanting Forest

The Secure Way Back for Lost and Worried People 

This indigenous Juniper forest (40) to the right of point (16) is somewhat enchanting, and as the paths end beyond its boundary, this can cause great difficulty for orientation. To find out from this fascinating and beautiful original forest, a lost person only ought to follow its very apparent slope down the east of the valley and thus in short contact with the open environment and clear paths that quickly show where you are in the relationship with the rest of the Park.

The Concealed Path of Entoto Kidane Mehret. 
A refreshing cool stream still runs in leaps and joy beyond the secrets of Entoto Kidane Mehret's sacred stone walls (32), a path to Bees' Cliff (14), and further exhilarated explorations. The trail runs attractively behind Entoto Kidane Mehret (32) in a concealed curve below its wall. The path passes through a small part of the village before it (5) opens along a deep ravine and finishes downhill towards a traditional bridge (22), shown within the open map square [A]. 

Trail Options Above the Circle (B)
Thus, there are several very different path choices just uphill from point  (38) - (B) but also become enriched by a more thorough, independent acquaintance with the full south-eastern to north-western eroded soil road  (41) located just to the right of points (14 - 16). The paths up to Bees' Cliff (14) offer several options; the northern hillside of the tributary gorge (36) within the loop (14), but also the southern slope of (38-39) - (15-16) and (41).


The Assistance Of Paths' Directions

The superficial water-conducting metal pipe (37) - [A] assists the mountain hike where its apparent suitability begins on the slope above the valley [A]. This place is easily reached from below the valley [A] with comfortable passing between a couple of cottages before it continues and reaches a gentle high level on the mountain's shoulder. Just before the Italian fortification (38) - (B) appears a theatrical view and potentially dangerous abyss a few metres to the left of the path. This precipitous view is within the lower map loop (B) regions and includes route deviation in three choices. The pipeline makes its high northern bend just to the right of (38) - (B). Just at this upper and most north turn of the pipeline, the path deviates from the pipeline in a threshold of the uphill steeper path that gives the direction to most hiking routes.

However, the underground water fort is also fascinating and thus appeals to a picnic with fantastic views and an entertaining exploration of the site's hidden technology.

** However, it is clear that the views of (38) - (B) and the surrounding precipices with the Canyon's slopes are too steep in some places to allow a confrontation with a vertical commitment. Still, this offers extra interest in wildlife scenarios, thus giving the picnics or the hikes extraordinary value.


Exciting Exploration with Picnic and Waterfall

This relatively highly located, picnic-inspiring grass glade at (38) - (B), with its hidden rock fortress, gives a very expectant feeling by being closely connected to the waterfall of the precipice. However, the waterfall is usually very inviting in its flow because its power is dampened with a harmonious weir with a spillway overflow. Although built in today's traditional decaying concrete, this alluring mountain ruin and Fortress (38) - (B) can give gifted researchers an excellent stimulation discovery of the importance of water technology. This construction works impressively as an entertaining and enjoyable bridge to the opposite side of the valley of this exciting and thoroughly inviting, water-flowing cliff dwelling.

Although this ruin (38) - (B) and high river-dell also invite the river's gate towards the Twilight Canyon, some alerts should remain. Since this mountain's natural gate to the Canyon is the fundamental cataract receiving cliff-ledge of the Canyon's accumulated water flow, a cautious approach is appropriate to treat this watergate. Furthermore, the continuing close contact with the deeper region of the gorge's profoundly rising uphill and chiselled waterway within the Canyon often appears scary and dangerous. The more secure choice for visitors to the Canyon's deep cleft and family's adventure entrance is higher on the Canyon's mountainside (36) within the map loop (14). Here are a few delightful, inviting glades within the Canyon where the visitors encounter splendid views, especially this tributary (36), whose numerous deep spatial overviews enrich the cosy natural atmosphere.
