The picturesque Ajora Falls are twin waterfalls located some 16km (10mi) west of the main Addis-Arba Minch highway, northwest of Sodo. The turn-off from the highway onto a dirt road leading to Ajora Falls lie about 7km (4mi) north of the small town of Areka in Wolaita, southern Ethiopia. The two waterfalls are formed by rivers Soke and Ajecha to the north and south, respectively. An aerial distance between the two falls is about 650m (2,133ft). Downstream from the falls, the two rivers form a confluence and flow further west for about 10km (6mi) before feeding into one of Ethiopia's major rivers, the Omo. The viewpoint is said to be steep and slippery with no adequate guardrails; choose your path wisely.
