Breathtaking place. Definitely recommend to go there. 1 hour’s hiking is not difficult and for sure worth it. You don’t need a guide to go there. Just give some tips to the people who will help you to do rock climbing. And please don’t donate money to this young priest. After I donated some local money to him, he asked dollars from me!

The Abune Yemata Guh Church is one of the most famous and unique churches located in the Gheralta Mountains of Tigray, Ethiopia. It is perched on a sheer cliff face, requiring visitors to climb steep rock faces and narrow ledges to reach the entrance. The church is dedicated to Abune Yemata, one of the Nine Saints who brought Christianity to Ethiopia in the 6th century. The church is renowned for its stunning frescoes, some of which date back over a thousand years. The interior of the church is adorned with intricate paintings depicting biblical scenes and saints, all preserved remarkably well considering their age and the remote location of the church. Visiting the Abune Yemata Guh Church is a challenging but rewarding experience, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and a unique glimpse into Ethiopia's rich Christian heritage. The church is still actively used for worship by local communities, adding to its cultural and religious significance. Overall, the Abune Yemata Guh Church is a testament to the enduring faith and ingenuity of the Ethiopian people and a must-visit destination for travelers interested in history, culture, and adventure.

A 6th century church on the top of 2500 meters high rock mountain that you have to hike and climb on foot. Mostly the area is little hot so to avoid the heat during hiking, i recommend to travel in the morning.
