Overview

Nestled in the Great Rift Valley of Kenya, Lake Nakuru National Park stands as a testament to the country's rich biodiversity and natural beauty. Spanning approximately 188 square kilometers, the park is renowned for its stunning landscapes, prolific birdlife, and diverse wildlife.

The centerpiece of Lake Nakuru National Park is its namesake lake, an alkaline water body that attracts millions of flamingos, pelicans, and other waterfowl throughout the year. The sight of these pink-hued birds congregating along the shores of the lake is a spectacle to behold and a photographer's dream.

Beyond its avian inhabitants, Lake Nakuru is also home to a variety of terrestrial wildlife, including both black and white rhinos, lions, leopards, giraffes, zebras, and more. The park's diverse habitats, which range from savannah and woodlands to rocky escarpments and marshlands, provide a haven for these animals and offer visitors a chance to witness them in their natural environment.
