Lalibela in February
Great time to visit
Still excellent weather with fewer crowds than January. The landscape looks increasingly dramatic as everything turns golden brown.
Weather
February maintains the dry season's grip with clear skies and comfortable temperatures. Nights remain cold around 6°C while days reach a pleasant 24°C. Dust can be an issue as the landscape gets increasingly parched.
