Protected area in Eritrea

Gash-Setit is a 709 km2 (274 mi2) designated national wildlife reserve and historical area of western Eritrea where it's considered to be the northernmost point of Africa for elephant habitat. It is located in much of Omhajer District and Haykota District between southwest of Haykota and the market town of Tesseney in the Gash-Barka region. The name is derived from the two rivers, the Gash and the Setit (Tekezé) River. It is the historical area of the Kunama people and a very fertile region extending to the Sudan border.
