Many travellers fly into Arba Minch and out of Jinka (or the reverse) to avoid backtracking. The route links Konso, the Weyto valley, Turmi, Omorate and Mago.
Day 1 climbs to Konso and drops into the Weyto valley, then reaches Turmi. Following days cover Hamer, Karo, Dassanech and Mursi communities.
Book your flights early, keep one buffer day for road conditions, and carry cash in small notes.
Visas, money, SIM cards, safety and what to expect on the ground.
