Mīlē

It is named for the Mille River, a tributary of the Awash River.

Mille is bordered on the south by the Administrative Zone 3, on the southwest by Administrative Zone 5, on the west by the Amhara Region, on the northwest by Chifra, on the northeast by Dubti, and on the southeast by the Somali Region.

Towns in Mille include Mille and Eli Wuha.

The highest point in this district is Mount Gabillema, at 1,459 meters (4787 feet), a dormant volcano in the southeastern part.

Roads in this woreda include the feeder road between Chifra and Mille, which is 105 kilometers (65 miles) in length; it was constructed in two segments between February 1999 and February 2001 by SUR Construction.

Important local landmarks include the Yangudi Rassa National Park, which covers the southeast corner of Mille, but not Mount Gabillema; and the archeological sites at Hadar and Dikika where specimens of Australopithecus afarensis have been recovered.
