Guji Zone
Map of the regions and zones of Ethiopia. NB: This map does not reflect the most recent administrative changes in zones

Guji (Oromo: Godina Gujii) is a zone in Oromia Region of Ethiopia. Guji is named after a tribe of the Oromo people. Guji is bordered on the south by Borena, on the west by the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples Region, on the north by the Ganale Dorya River which separates it from Bale and on the east by the Somali Region. The highest point in this zone is Mount Dara Tiniro. Cities and major towns in this Zone include its administrative center, Nagele, Shakiso Bore, Dila Adola.

The Guji Zone was created in September 2002, when the upland woredas of the Borena Zone were split apart to create it.[1]
