Lake Nakuru, 95 miles/156 km NW of Nairobi, is one of Africa’s famous “1,000s of flamingoes” lakes. The park also offers an excellent opportunity to see rhino.

There is considerable other wildlife in the park, including buffalo, elands, impala, Rothschild giraffes, warthog and waterbuck. The lake also has a population of hippos. Lion and leopard are also present in the park. Lake Nakuru’s bird population exceeds 400 species.

Wildlife at Lake Nakuru tends to be more easily seen than in some other areas because of concentration due to the size of the park, 69.5 sq. miles/180 km2. The intimate size of the park in conjunction with its use by the Kenya Wildlife Service as a protected haven for rhino contribute to seeing quite a number of them even on a brief visit.

From Baboon Cliff you’ll enjoy a truly fantastic view of the entire lake and its extraordinary water birds.

Lake Nakuru National Park is a small, easily managed delight on any safari itinerary.
