Gambela National Park is Ethiopia’s greatest wildlife show-in-waiting, and being difficult to get to doesn’t change that. It has vast herds of migrating antelope species and what are thought to be sizeable populations of predators, so if current predictions are borne out in ongoing surveys, this park – along with Boma National Park across the border in South Sudan – could have wildlife numbers to rival the famous reserves of Kenya and Tanzania. It’s also rather beautiful, with savannah, flood plains and riverine forests.
