Daallo Mountain

Daallo Mountain is a national park in the Sanaag region of SSC-Khatumo.

Understand

Daallo Mountain is a prime example of an unspoiled wilderness, a dense forest on a limestone and gypsum escarpment near to the base of Mount Shimbiris, the tallest peak of SSC-Khatumo. The park has perhaps the richest biodiversity of the Somali region.

Get in

The park is roughly an hour north by road from Erigavo. There is virtually zero tourist infrastructure. You can arrange a tour from Las Anod or Hargeisa.
