In 1926 a volcanic eruption in the Danakil Depression in Ethiopia created a crater known as Dallol. The word Dallol means disintegration and describes the landscape made up of acid ponds,iron oxide ,sulfur and salt plains. Though nice to see in photos,the combination of noxious fumes and an average daily temperature of 94 degrees it is not high on any list of tourist attractions,add to that the fact that the only regular transport is camel caravans which travel there to collect salt. I am going to take a pass on this one.
