The Lake Nakuru is one of the most impressive spectacles that can be seen, not only in Africa but throughout the world. This Kenyan nature reserve stands out for the large amount of wildlife it houses.
Lake Nakuru is about 150 kilometers from Nairobi, in the heart of the Rift Valley, whose lakes - including Nakuru - are declared a World Heritage Site. In addition to the Nakuru, the Bogoria and the Elementaita stand out, three interconnected lakes that represent a true wonder of nature.

Without a doubt, the main attraction of Lake Nakuru are the flamingos that inhabit its waters. These majestic birds, which congregate by the thousands, seem to dye the waters of this lake pink. Enjoying the sight of flamingos swimming peacefully over the lake and submerging their heads under the waters is a delight not to be missed when traveling to Africa.
Lake Nakuru attracts, not only flamingos, but also many other species of migratory birds, such as pelicans, thanks to the alkaline condition of its waters. This allows nutritious algae and zooplactons to form on the Nakuru to serve as food for the birds.

In addition, on the shores of the lake, other species of animals are welcomed that are also worth seeing. Among the most outstanding are the black rhinoceros and carnivores of the size of the lion or the leopard.
At Lake Nakuru there are a number of viewpoints that will allow you to enjoy a splendid view of the lake, the flamingos above it, and all the wildlife. Don't miss the Baboon Cliff - the Baboon Cliff - which is home to various species of animals; or Lion Hill –the lion's hill- whose amazing forests will transport you to an almost prehistoric place.
Lake Nakuru will allow you to enjoy a paradise of ornithology and the most fascinating facet of African nature. Come to this impressive place to immerse yourself in a magical environment.
