Trekking in Tigrai, Ethiopia |
The climb up to Maryam Korkor would have been adventurous enough, but then a bad thunderstorm arrived on top. We waited for the big rain to stop in the church, but the stones were quite slippery afterwards and the descent was a true nightmare!
There are many rock churches which have been really cut out from the rock. Lot of them stand on top of high rocks or mountains. Many are very inaccessible and for most you need a guide to find them at all.
