Health Requirements

Although malaria is less common at higher elevations such as Axum and Lalibela, it is nevertheless recommended that visitors take anti-malarial prophylaxis in case their travels take them through or into lower-lying parts of the country where incidence of malaria is more frequent. Insect repellent creams or sprays are also useful. For lowland travel impregnated bed nets have also been found to be particularly effective.
