Erta Ale is found in the Danakil Depression in Ethiopia's Afar region. Summiting Erta Ale is to traverse through one of the world's most challenging environments. The searing heat of the Danakil means the volcano can only be climbed in the evening as the sun sets, and descended in the very early hours of the morning.
