Roof of Ethiopia - Simien National Park
Created in 1969 to protect endemic species that inhabit it, Simien National Park is listed as a World Heritage by UNESCO.Massive erosion over the years on the Ethiopian plateau has created one of the most spectacular landscapes in the world, with jagged mountain peaks, deep valleys and sharp precipices dropping some 1500 m. The park is home to some extremely rare animals such as the Gelada baboon, the Simien fox and the Walia ibex, a goat found nowhere else in the world

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking beauty of Simien National Park, also known as the "Roof of Ethiopia". Established in 1969 with the noble purpose of safeguarding its unique endemic species, this park has earned a well-deserved place on UNESCO's World Heritage list. Over time, extensive erosion on the Ethiopian plateau has sculpted an awe-inspiring landscape that is truly one of nature's wonders. With its rugged mountain peaks, deep valleys, and sheer cliffs plunging nearly 1500 meters, Simien National Park offers a visual feast for those fortunate enough to witness it. This tranquil scene captured by Pascal Boegli transports viewers to this enchanting corner of Amhara in Ethiopia's Horn of Africa region. Within these majestic surroundings reside some incredibly rare animals that have found their sanctuary here. The Gelada baboon, Simien fox, and Walia ibex—a goat species found nowhere else on Earth—call this pristine wilderness home. As we gaze upon this colorful image bathed in sunlight, we are reminded not only of the immense natural beauty our planet possesses but also of our responsibility to protect and preserve such precious ecosystems for future generations. Let us cherish and respect these remarkable travel destinations like Simien National Park—an invaluable gift from nature itself.
