The place

About Lake Bogoria

A shallow alkaline lake in the Rift Valley, famous for its flamingo flocks, steaming hot springs, and bubbling geysers along the shoreline. Bogoria is where flamingos often relocate when water levels at Nakuru rise too high. The surrounding cliffs offer a dramatic backdrop and the park is small enough to see in a half-day.
