Eritrea Elevation Map

Eritrea is at the intersection point of three tectonic plates diverging and tearing apart. It’s the Danakil Depression that lies at this triple junction. Also, it’s the location of Mount Ayalu, one of two volcanoes as a result of the Afar Triangle.

While the coastal highlands are characterized by their dry and hot region, cliffs and canyons are situated in the south. At 2,021 meters (6,631 ft), Mousa Ali is Eritrea’s highest peak. This stratovolcano is located on the tripoint boundary of Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Djibouti.
