Entoto–Kechene Riverside Park (Kurtumi)
Inaugurated in June 2026, this 22km riverside development follows the Kurtumi river from Entoto down through Kechene, stitching together fruit parks, cycling lanes, pedestrian routes, plazas and more than 20 footbridges — including striking suspension bridges — along once-degraded riverbanks. It's the newest piece of Addis's dramatic riverside transformation.
☀️ Local tip
Walk a section downhill from the Entoto end for views; facilities are new, so expect ongoing tweaks to entrances and fees.
