Mago National Park

Mago National Park is located at about 782 kilometers south of Addis Ababa. The 2162 square kilometers of this park is divided by the Mago River, a tributary of the Omo River, into two parts. The park office is 115 kilometers north of Omorate and 26 kilometers southwest of Jinka.
The Mago National Park was established in 1979, making it the newest among national parks. Its territory embraces savanna, acacia forest, and the Neri Swamp. Its highest point is Mount Mago. The park’s best known attraction is the Mursi people, who inhabit villages along the Omo River, known for piercing their lips and inserting disks made of clay.
