Mount Batu

Mount Batu is a mountain located in southern Ethiopia, rising to over 11,000 feet (3,350 meters) near the town of Goba. This region, which includes Bale Mountains National Park, is significant for its high number of endemic species, most notably the rare Ethiopian wolf (Canis simensis). The Ethiopian Mountains are a series of mountain groups on the central and western plateaus of Ethiopia, likely of volcanic origin. The highest peak in Ethiopia is Ras Dejen (or Dashen) in the Simien Mountains, reaching 14,872 feet (4,533 meters). No Ethiopian peak is permanently covered in snow.12
