Lake Bogoria National Reserve – A Flamingo Haven in the Rift Valley
Unleash Your Adventure with Rumaa Tours
Lake Bogoria National Reserve, nestled in Kenya’s Great Rift Valley, is a breathtaking alkaline soda lake renowned for its vibrant pink flocks of up to two million lesser flamingos, dramatic hot springs, and bubbling geysers. Located just south of Lake Baringo, this UNESCO World Heritage Site and Ramsar-protected wetland offers a unique safari experience with its geothermally active landscape and rich biodiversity. Home to over 300 bird species, including African fish eagles and sacred ibis, as well as wildlife like greater kudu, zebras, and hippos, Bogoria is a serene, less-visited gem perfect for birdwatchers, nature lovers, and adventurers.
