Lake Nakuru National Park
A Rift Valley soda lake famous for flamingos, rhino sanctuaries and dramatic escarpment views.
About Lake Nakuru
Lake Nakuru offers one of the richest concentrations of wildlife and birdlife anywhere in Kenya, all within a compact, easy-to-explore park.
The lake itself is famed for its flocks of flamingos, while the surrounding grasslands, cliffs and forest protect both black and white rhino in a well-guarded sanctuary, plus one of Africa's largest euphorbia candelabra forests.
