We aim to set responsible tourism standards, to minimise the impact of our challenges on the environment and above all, to ensure local people benefit from tourism.As well as employing local guides, porters and support staff and using locally-owned accommodation where possible, Simien Eco Trek supports projects and charities which operate in the simien mountains area.Since we are originally from the area we know all the difficulties as a result 6% of our profit goes to the local community for improvement of schools, health centers, and Tourism institutions that we are working with.
