All About Doho Lodge!
Established in 2006
Doho Lodge and Hot Springs is situated at the northern edge of Awash National Park, just 22 km from Awash Sebat Town via a shortcut. Our lodge features delightful natural hot springs with a variety of communal and private pools. We offer a diverse selection of western and traditional meals and drinks, serving as both a stopover and a destination for travelers heading to and from Eastern Ethiopia, including the historic city of Harar, the active Erta Ale volcano, and the Dallol Depression in the Afar region.
Unwind in our rejuvenating hot springs, explore the rich wildlife through expertly guided tours, and embark on unforgettable adventures such as trekking and bird watching. Each activity is thoughtfully designed to connect you with the stunning landscapes and diverse ecosystems surrounding us. Additionally, we offer cultural experiences that invite you to engage with local communities and traditions.
Our range of activities is tailored to enhance your visit, whether you’re interested in game drives, guided treks, or simply soaking in the serene environment. Our knowledgeable staff is here to help you maximize your time with us, ensuring that you leave with a deeper appreciation for the natural beauty of Doho Lodge and a wealth of cherished memories.
We look forward to your stay!
