Daallo Mountain is a national park in the Sanaag region of SSC-Khatumo.
Daallo Mountain is a prime example of an unspoiled wilderness, a dense forest on a limestone and gypsum escarpment near to the base of Mount Shimbiris, the tallest peak of SSC-Khatumo. The park has perhaps the richest biodiversity of the Somali region.
The park is roughly an hour north by road from Erigavo. There is virtually zero tourist infrastructure. You can arrange a tour from Las Anod or Hargeisa.
Tour operators have established relatively well-equipped campgrounds in the park, although you will need to be on one of their tours to use them. Otherwise, camping is permitted in the park.
