LAKE NAKURU NATIONAL PARK NOW FULLY OPERATIONAL

After the floods, Lake Nakuru is fully open, back into operation and accessible by road.

In a statement released by Kenya Wildlife Service, “The roads that were submerged were on the Northern and Western sections.  Currently, new roads have been done and accompanying drainage structures, including bridges and culverts have been constructed hence the circuit is complete and all-weather. Further, the standard airstrip continues to be operational.


KWS self-catering accommodation-Naishi guesthouse-as well as all tourist lodges in the Park (Sarova Lion Hill Game Lodge, Lake Nakuru Lodge and Flamingo Hill Camp) have not been affected by the rising lake water level. Makalia public campsite and special campsites including Nyuki, Nyati, Chui, Rhino, Reedbuck and Naishi as well as Baboon Cliff, Out of Africa and Lion Hill observation/picnic sites are all open and fully operational.”

Lake Nakuru, besides the flamingos that the lake is famous for, has  approximately 400 other bird species visiting the lake as well as a variety of game including the Rothschild's giraffe, black and white rhino, waterbuck, reedbuck, lion, buffalo, leopard, baboon among many species of plains game.

The safari takes us South through the Rift Valley to Masai Mara where the largest concentrations of game in Kenya is to be found. Then back North to the remote lakes Bogoria and Baringo a bird watchers paradise.
Baringo is home to a Community Museum and Reptile Park, which was opened in 2003. The Museum has been established to educate local people and visitors about reptile species. The museum is open daily, displaying several species of snakes, including the Black Mamba, Puff Adder, Boom slang and Spitting Cobra as well as Monitor Lizards, Crocodiles and a central pit shared by endangered tortoises and harmless Stripe Bellied Sand Snakes. This lake is  well known for Hippo and Crocodile. There are plenty of both here, and visitors have no trouble seeing either.
The crocodiles are often seen lying on the shores or swimming through the shallows hunting waterfowl.Lake Bogoria is the heart of an arid landscape, in the shadow of the dramatic walls of the Siracho Range. The soda waters of the lake attract massive flocks of Flamingo, and the lake is often carpeted with pink. Lake Bogoria’s flamingo population is often greater than Lake Nakuru.
