Easiest route =Emba Soira is the highest mountain in
Eritrea . Rising 3018 metres above sea level, it is part of theEritrean Highlands , one side of theGreat Rift Valley which cuts through Eritrea and joins theRed Sea . The mountain is situated in the southeast part of theDebub (Southern) administrative region in central Eritrea.Emba Soira is reached by a paved road to the city of
Adi Keyh 93 kilometres south of the national capitalAsmara and from there on a very difficult and perilous dirt track heading east for almost 20 kilometres. The last part must be trekked and consumes a few hours at least of travel.
