Mogo Kaqa you may be surprise by many things that are not naturally surprising! Mogo kaka is one of this natural blessings. Located in Gamo Zone in Zeise Dembile Kebele, this place is one of the natural attractions in our district. It covers about 20 hectares. This attraction is located at a distance of 74 kilometers from Arba Minch in a sub-kebel with the unique name of Bokola. Seen from a distance, it looks like a pile of sand created by wind power in Barhama area. When you look at it closely, to prove that it is different and very strong. The fact that it has withstood floods and wind erosion for centuries shows its strength.When you look at the place, you can’t take your eyes off it, and you can’t take your eyes off it. It’s a pile of limestone that is name as a mound at the same height. A person who observes from a distance as they go up and down from one to the other will understand that they are playing with nature. For visitors, the place is very suitable for adventurers and tourists who like to admire the unique view of nature. In addition to the fact that Zeise Dembele has a plateau climate. And the wind from Lake Chamo is where it rests. After traveling along the road from Arba Mojan Gidole to Zeise Mekaka. Take the paved road to the north and once you reach Bokola Sub-Kebele. So, you will walk 1 km to reach the attraction.Residents of the area say that before this, the attraction was visit by both domestic and foreign tourists. But they explain that this is not the case at the moment. One of the reasons cited for this is that the road problem is a general problem of Zeise Dembile Kebele. Which is not only a problem for tourism, but also a hindrance to social and economic activity in the area. The road from Zeise Wazaka to Bano is very difficult for making it difficult to reach and visit the attraction. In addition to roads, other infrastructures have not be complete. As well as research and promotion work has not been done.I could observe that Mogo Kaqa has the potential to become an alternative to other attractions. In our district if the infrastructure is developed in the area and it is researched and introduced.
