Banded Barbet

The Lodge is situated on the edge of Babogaya Lake near Debre Zeit, a town at 47 km just 1hr south of Addis Abeba. This ancient volcano is 1km wide, and filled with clear water in which it is possible to swim, take out a kayak or even our paddle boat. The lush gardens provide a haven for birds and many species can be seen easily while taking breakfast and looking out over the picturesque lake.
