Nech Sar National Park

Nech Sar, The True Natural Forest Park
This park is the most accessible of the parks, with impressive or beautiful natural scenery, at an hour flight distance from Addis Ababa. The area is reputed for its abundant local springs, lakes, groundwater, and thick natural forest. Here you will find amazing kinds of insects, birds and wild animals that dwell in this forest: from cutest to the monstrous; from commonest to the rarest; from rollers to the dancers; from tunnelers to the hungers.

Science has never been so wrong in differentiating a tree from a vine. Would you like to assert this? See the picture.

If you want to see real-time drama of prey and predator or the chasing and the fleeing, this is the place. I once saw two 'police monkeys', armed with sticks, escorting a convicted monkey off their territory.

The poop-hoarding insects, Dung Beetles, have an amazingly advanced internal GPS that allows them to navigate while rolling poop balls heavier than them. Here is the job description of a Dung beetle in this forest: find a poop, pack it, roll it, chill on it, eat it, or store it for the offspring.

The dance of death by a praying mantis: the male praying mantises perform a seductive dance to attract a mate, who will later bite their heads off. When a male praying mantis starts the dance, they do it well because it is always their last dance.

I loved our trip and the kids loved it too. However at the park, I did not wear long sleeves and got bit by insects I was told live on some of the wild animals. Can someone please share the name or what it is? Now I have developed severe itching and a bad skin reaction.

Just learned that those are poppy seed ticks!!!

Crossing the mighty lake chamo full of huge crocodile and Hippos with many aquatic birds, trekking through the national park see the smaller zebras and other wildlife

This is probably the greatest park in the world

Boat trip on lake Chamo where I was able to see wild crocs at "crocodile market", eagles (both male and female), hippos, etc.

No tourists there. Rented motor bike to travel in park. Many zebras, antelopes and couple other animals. Don't expect tigers:)

Magnificent!!🖤

Amazing place

Parco Nazionale ai margini del Lago Chamo. L'abbiamo visitato solamente un giorno di lunga escursione dopo aver navigato sul Lago Chamo. Il territorio richiama la savana con nugoli di zebre e antilopi che allietano il paesaggio. Di fauna non ho visto nient'altro. Molto bello comunque arrivare in barca tra coccodrilli, pellicani, ippopotami e molti altri uccelli. E' una bella visita....

Lago Abaya: de color rojo debido a los altos niveles de sedimentos.
Lago Chamo: a 1100 msnm, alrededor del lago domina la sabana. 32 km de largo, 13 de ancho y 14 de profundidad.
Entre ambos un itsmo de 3-8 km de ancho, "El puente de Dios".
El paseo en barca por el Chamo me llevo a dos metros de graciosos pelicanos y espeluznantes cocodrilos. Los hipopótamos no quisieron enseñar más que las orejas.

Fantazja, miejsce które istnieje i które należy zobaczyć. Pierwotna natura, ludzie, którzy tam mieszkają i żyją.

Es un lugar muy típico..... La llegada y clasificación del pescado.... Su venta... El bullicio de la jente...
