You will get the opportunity to see several cultural and ecological marvels on your journey. The breathtaking Jemma Gorge and the long-lost Debre Libanos Monastery,
Getting to Debre Libanos from the north on the Gojjam route takes around two hours.

The city of Debre Libanos is a prominent religious site for Ethiopian Orthodox Christians. The renowned mystic Saint Teclehaimanot established the monastery on that site in the thirteenth century. Near the new church, in a little cave, legend has it that he walked for seven years until his leg finally gave out.

Birdwatching and cultural learning go hand in hand on this trail. To get a sense of the Oromo culture, we might stop at a round home as we go across the Sululta Plain.
A variety of species, including wheat ears, blue geese, black-winged plover, and common cranes, will also be present.
to Debre Libanos, we will make a first stop to the Jemma gorge. The Jemma is one of the rivers that empties into the Nile. Almost a thousand meters down lies the valley. In the woodland and canyon around the church, we may see a variety of species, including the Black-headed woodland Oriole, White-billed Starling, Red-billed Starling, White-winged Cliff Chat, White-cheeked Turaco, and Hemprich's Hornbill. One unique species that can be found exclusively in Ethiopia is the Gelada, often known as the bleeding-heart baboon. The gorge is a good place to see vultures, including Lappet-faced, Ruppell's, and Lamergeyer's vultures.
After exploring the Gorge, we go to the church. Once visitors have seen the church, they may ascend to the cave of St. Teklehaimanot. Tourists may see the remains of the 300 monks murdered by Italian forces in 1936 near the cave if they ask the monks nicely. A key component of Ethiopian independence, in the eyes of Mussolini and the Nazi regime, was the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. They thought that if they slaughtered enough Churchgoers, the Ethiopian people would be compelled to capitulate. Victims' will to resist was further strengthened by the brutality they endured. After your visit, take a vehicle ride back to Addis Abeba.
