Thirty minutes’ drive from Elementaita, the lake is situated in the middle of the national park to which it gives its name. Teeming with wildlife, the park has so much to offer. Sometimes, when the water levels are low, the entire lake is covered in flamingos, turning the whole area pink. Lions, buffalos, and many rhinos call this corner of Kenya home, and a game drive around the park is always rewarding. If we are lucky, we may even spot a leopard relaxing in a tree beside the lake.
