Best 4 Days Lake Bogoria Walking Safari

4 Days

Did you know that Lake Bogoria was formerly known as Lake Hannington? It had been named after one Bishop James Hannington who visited in 1885, interesting right?

Well, Lake Bogoria is a saline, alkaline lake found in a volcanic region, in a half-graben basin south of Lake Baringo, in Kenya. But the lake has not always been saline, sediment core has shown that freshwater conditions existed before for several periods of time and that the lake was about 9 meters higher than its present elevation of around 990 meters. Lake Bogoria is home to one of the world’s largest populations of flamingos. The lake is a Ramsar site and it has been protected by the Kenyan government as a National Reserve since the year 1973. The lake is also famous for its geysers and hot springs which are found along the banks.
