Ethiopia - Level 3: Reconsider Travel
Reconsider travel to Ethiopia due to sporadic violent conflict, civil unrest, crime, communications disruptions, terrorism and kidnapping in border areas.

Ethiopia, located in the Horn of Africa, is a land of dramatic contrasts. Its geography is dominated by the rugged Ethiopian Highlands, a vast plateau with elevations reaching over 4,000 meters above sea level. This elevated region is crisscrossed by deep canyons and river valleys, including the source of the Blue Nile. In contrast, the country's eastern lowlands descend into the arid Danakil Depression, one of the hottest and lowest places on Earth. Ethiopia's landscape also features diverse ecosystems, from the afro-alpine moorlands of the Bale Mountains to the savannas of the south. This unique blend of mountains, valleys, and plains creates a rich tapestry of biodiversity and cultural diversity across the country.
