The 156 Km Nairobi- Nakuru road gives the visitor an unrivalled view
of the majestic Great Rift Valley, winding through a series of Lakes
and forested uplands all the way to the bustling market town of Nakuru.
On the outskirts of Nakuru lies a truly remarkable National Park, which
has achieved international fame an animal sanctuary. Both Black and White
Rhinos are being given a new lease of Life in this 188sq.Km fully
electrically fenced park and they are carefully protected. The Rothschild's
giraffe is another unique and the Park has its fare share of the Buffalo,
Leopard, Wild dog, Zebra, Eland, Waterbuck and the territorial Lion.
Situated in the South East Ecological niche of the Park is the Lake Nakuru
Lodge, an oasis of comfort and excellent service, with commanding views of
the lesser Flamingo dotted with the Greater Flamingo for which Lake Nakuru
is justly famous.
After a days game watching, the spacious logged Mama Nikki bar, the cool
Upstairs Rhino Paddock Cocktail Bar overlooking the Lake and the enticing
blue swimming pool can be particularly inviting. Evening entertainment and
slide shows for the guest is interesting and varied. In the park, the sites
read like a Walt Disney Fantasy. The Baboon Cliff lookout sits next to
Honeymoon Hill.
