Awash is a market town in central Ethiopia. Located in Administrative Zone 3 of the Afar Region, above a gorge on the Awash River, after which the town is named, the town lies on the Addis Ababa - Djibouti Railway, which crosses the gorge by a bridge there. It is the largest settlement in Awash Fentale woreda.Awash lies outside the Awash National Park, which is known for its wildlife, for the Mount Fentale caldera and for the Filwoha Hot Springs. Its market is held on Mondays, where Afar and Kereyu crafts can be found.
An iron bridge over the Awash had been built at the present location of Awash by Emperor Menelik II's favorite, Alfred Ilg, around 1890; this bridge replaced an earlier wooden one. The construction had to face the great difficulty of transporting the girders from Djibouti, but once the material had arrived, the structure had been finished in ten days; however Emperor Menelik had used for other purposes the cement imported from Europe to build the bridge with. When Count Gleichen encountered the bridge in 1897, during his mission to Emperor Menelik, he found the bridge would be too weak to stand anything but ordinary pack-animal traffic. For nine months in the year it is blocked at each end by a broad abattis of thorn-bush, - to prevent people from using it when the river is fordable, - but during the rains it is left open.
Awash grew up around the railroad station, which was opened not long after 1917 when the railway had reached this far into Ethiopia. A hotel for passengers was built in Awash about that time.[3] The fourth post office in Ethiopia (after Harar, Dire Dawa and Addis Ababa) was established in Awash on 1 September 1923, but it may not have been much of a point of origin and arrival but rather a place on the line between the capital and the coast.During the Italian occupation, Awash still provided a post office, a telegraph station, the hotel, and restaurant. The town was occupied in April 1941 by the 22nd East African Brigade of the King's African Rifles, who had advanced for three days from Dire Dawa. Elements of this brigade afterwards continued their advance across the Awash at this point on 3 April 1941, although the road and rail bridge had been demolished by the retreating Italians. By 1953, the bridge had been rebuilt.One of the five camps to train conscripts of the People's Militia (reconstituted in the spring of 1977 as the Red Army) was located at Awash.
On January 14, 1985 a train derailed at Awash on the Addis Ababa - Djibouti Railway plunging four of its five carriages into a ravine; the crash was estimated to have killed at least 428 and injured 500 of the estimated 1,000 on board. It was the worst rail accident in African history. It is believed that the cause of the crash was the excessive speed of the train round a curve on a bridge across the ravine. The derailment happened at 13:40 between Arba and Awash.

Hamadryas Baboons-Awash National Park, Ethiopia.

One of the highlights of my travels in Ethiopia was observing the Hamadryas Baboons on a cliffside near the Filwuha hot springs. Awash National Park also has 473 different species of birds. This area is located approximately 250k from Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia.

Awash National Park, Ethiopia

Awash National Park is one of the National Parks of Ethiopia. Located at the southern tip of the Afar Region, this park is 225 kilometers east of Addis Ababa (and a few kilometers west of Awash), with its southern boundary along the Awash River, and covers at least 756 square kilometers of acacia woodland and grassland.

Awash River Falls

The Awash River begins in the highlands of Ethiopia west of Addis Ababa and ends in Lake Abe on the border with Djibouti. With a total length of 1200 km it is considered to be the most important river in the country. The water falls are one of the attractions of the Awash National Park.

Awash, Injera, Hotels and Camping in Ethiopia


Awash National Park is a big miss. Established in 1966, wildlife in this park primarily consists of Oryx, Dik-diks and Kudus, all can be seen while driving along the road!

This portion of the trip proceeded from Harar to Awash on the way back to Addis Ababa for one night, camping on the way.

Prepare to eat and see lots of Injera, the typical Ethiopian yeast-risen flat bread in all the videos. Traditionally made out of Teff Flour, it has a spongy (rubbery) consistency and is served with different vegetables and/or meats plopped into the center. ex-Marine (husband, Steve) and I happen to love Injera (of course, we love FOOD), and happily ate different varieties throughout the trip.
