LAKE NAKURU NATIONAL PARK

Often described as an ornithologist’s paradise, the Lake Nakuru National park is located within the Great Rift Valley and encompasses one of the Rift’s most reknowned natural wonders- an outstanding place to watch, at times, over 1 million pink flamingos wading along the shores of the shallow, alkaline water lake. Hundreds of other water birds, including pelicans, marabou storks, seagulls, avocets, plovers and stilts can also be found at the lake itself, while the acacia trees and rocky cliffs of the park house Verreaux’s eagles, splendid fish eagles, vultures and wood hoopoes.

The parklands are filled with numerous buffalo, waterbuck, gazelles and impalas, while the majestic and rare Rothschild giraffes roam the acacia forests, occassionally walking across the open plains. Lions, leopards, hyenas and jackals are commonly sighted, as are the black and white rhinos, who have found refuge in Kenya’s prime rhino sanctuary.
