Located in the Afar Region of northeastern Ethiopia, the Danakil Depression is famously known as the hottest place on Earth. Because of the extreme summer heat, travel here is highly restricted during the summer months.
The peak travel window runs from September to February, when temperatures drop to more comfortable levels, making it the perfect time for trekking, sightseeing, and camping under the stars.
