Ils nous font payer super cher pour seulement 1 tour, les employés ne nous donnent aucune liberté sur le circuit, ils ne nous aident pas lorsque nous sommes en difficulté dans les montées, ils nous pressent alors qu'il n'y a personne

The very interesting Natural beauty parks, found in the North ofNear Addis Ababa.

Awesome

Entoto Park is a remarkable destination located at the peak of the Finfinne mountain range, initiated by Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed (PhD). It offers visitors an opportunity to explore a pristine natural environment characterized by clear streams, waterfalls, and dramatic landscapes, making it ideal for relaxation and various water activities. Key Features: Natural Beauty: The park is set within a lush eucalyptus forest, often referred to as "the lung of Finfinne," thanks to its expansive greenery and clean air. Athletic Training Ground: The area is popular among Ethiopia's elite athletes and aspiring runners, providing a beautiful and invigorating environment for training. Recreational Facilities: Entoto Park boasts a wide range of amenities, including: Playgrounds for children A cinema for entertainment Restaurants and cafes for dining An artificial lake for leisure activities Art galleries to showcase local art Spas and sports centers for relaxation and fitness Facilities for both indoor and outdoor activities Overall, Entoto Park has become a must-visit attraction in Finfinne, thanks to its natural charm and diverse recreational offerings, making it a perfect spot for anyone looking to enjoy the outdoors and experience one of the most refreshing places in the city.

The park is amazing, and the view is worth it. However, it lacks a guidance system and maps. Once you start, you really don’t know where you are or how much is left to reach the endpoint.

If you do visit this beautiful park go for the full day because the walks are very long and beautiful. You will work up an appetite. They do have nice restaurants to eat. Make sure to wear trainers and no fancy shoes.

My experience at Entoto Park was one I won’t forget. The cold wind and high altitude didn’t compare to the fun we were about to have. First, the trampoline park was our first event. The basketball hoops and the super trampoline add to the excitement. Second, we proceeded to the go-karts and this was what sold the experience for me the high speed, tight turns and drift, and your adrenaline going through the roof, I loved every part of it but I do wish it was a bit longer: 2 laps just ain't enough but I get it its a business after all. Third, we made our way to the zipline only a brisk walk from the attractions we just went to. Here you become friends with fear and realize that all of life's greatest adventures are hidden behind fear. I sat as the instructor told me and leaped into the wind—feeling as if I could fly. Although it was cut short as the zipline ended, there were two more of those waiting for me and I think that just adds to the experience, but the 10 minutes I spent walking back to base, with our hear on could have been shorted by a dedicated route for zipliner to go back to base. And lastly, the zipline Obstacle course. A mix of challenging courses with the laughs of your friends. This unique fast-paced and strategic approach adds a nice touch listen to your instructor, I didn't and I got my leg hit—mild pain that could have been avoided if I had just listened. As the end of our time at Entoto Park came to an end, we admired the flower garden and the kids' playground on our way to Mama’s kitchen, where we had a really good fasting dining experience and the half-chicken looked like a buffet in itself. We devoured our food as we were hungry from all the attractions we had just gone through. To top it all off we had a surprise plate come in for a secret birthday 😉. The waiters and staff were honest and amazing, even asking about our experience (not a common thing in Ethiopia). Overall for someone looking for a good time at a semi-high price, Entoro has managed to encompass the spirit of Ethiopia into every experience from the jokes our zipline instructor cracked to the staff at Mama’s kitchen who gave me the keys to the toilet. So come to Entoto and don't let your fears hold you back from having the experience of a lifetime.

Very nice park just outside of the city. We loved it to get better air quality and took a walk for about 7km and enjoyed some coffee there afterwards. Very nice view of Addis.

You can easily spend an entire day at Entoto Park, enjoying the beauty of nature. The park is perfect for both walking and cycling, with well-maintained tarmac paths that are not too steep, making it easy to navigate. There are various spots to have a coffee or dine at the restaurants available. Additionally, the park offers a range of leisure activities, including a climbing forest, trampoline park, zip-lining, and horse riding. The entrance fee is reasonable, with a charge of 100 Birr for residents and 1,000 Birr for tourists. Visitors can expect a clean environment that is well-maintained and secure. There are several entrances to the park, allowing you to reach your desired locations more quickly if you prefer not to walk the entire distance.

For foreigners, the entrance fee to the park is now 1,000 Ethiopian Birr (less than 8 Euros/USD as of August 10, 2024) due to the depreciation of the Ethiopian currency. This is lower than the 20 USD advertised at the ticket window, which might make it seem like a worthwhile visit. However, in our experience, it wasn’t worth it. We used Apple Pay to purchase tickets in Ethiopian Birr, and while the lower price influenced our decision to visit, the experience fell far short of expectations. It took us more than 3 hours to complete the circuit, but there were no basic amenities provided with the ticket. All the restaurants inside the park were closed, so we highly recommend bringing your own snacks, such as peanuts or candy. Otherwise, you’ll be left with only the overpriced options at the park entrance. The toilets were in unacceptable condition—dirty and poorly maintained, which was disappointing for a place charging an entrance fee. If you’re traveling alone, leaving the park can also be challenging. Taxis waiting near the exit charge exorbitant rates, often five times more than what the local Ride app shows. Keep in mind that Ride app vehicles cannot access the park exit directly. Instead, you’ll need to walk about five minutes to the main road, where you can easily book a Ride app taxi at a fair price. Overall, if you’re short on time in Ethiopia, this park is not worth the visit. It offers little beyond basic hiking trails, which are similar to those you can find in many places in Europe or Asia, but with fewer facilities and services. Unless you’re very keen on exploring this specific area, you’re better off prioritising other attractions.

They have everything for a nice outing. This is a must visit, weather It's for a long walk or for some adventure.

This place feels like the hidden hills behind Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia. It’s only about a 30-minute drive from the city center—assuming the traffic isn’t too bad. The altitude here is impressive, reaching over 2,800 meters and getting close to 3,000 meters. While Addis Ababa itself is already located on a high plateau, this area sits even higher. You’ll pass by countless eucalyptus trees along the way—but don’t worry, there are no koalas around! The trails are perfect for walking or biking, although you’ll need to figure out bike rentals on your own.

A huge 10km plus park on a hill top close to the capital city. Silent and lots of trees. Good for cycling and jogging.
