Overview

10000 Flamingos Lodge is the only lodge inside Abijatta-Shalla National Park, set on the rim above the crater lake Chitu, whose soda water draws large flocks of flamingos. Ten round tukul-style houses with private bathrooms look over the lake, and the lodge restaurant serves Ethiopian and international meals. Guided walks to the hot springs of Lake Shalla and to the flamingos are arranged, and park entry fees are paid separately. It is run by the owners of Babogaya Lake Viewpoint Lodge in Bishoftu.
