Lake Nakuru National Park

Lake Nakuru National Park is located at around 200 km to the northwest of Nairobi. The road to Nakuru has recently been rehabilitated, which means that it takes around 2 hours and a half to get there, and the drive across the Rift Valley is pure pleasure.

We had been told that there might not be many pink flamingos because they had already started migrating south, but there were definitely more than just a few, still lingering around the Lake. They formed a beautiful pink rim around the lake, creating a breathtaking view!

We also saw many rhinos, buffalos, giraffes (from a distance), zebras, baboons, warthogs -love how they run with their tails straight up!
