The Lake Regions - Collection

The Lake Regions

Discover the Wonders of Kenya’s Lake Regions

Kenya's lake regions are a treasure trove of breathtaking beauty, unique wildlife, and rich cultural experiences. Whether you’re an avid birdwatcher, a nature lover, or someone looking to explore Kenya’s hidden gems, the lake regions offer an enchanting getaway from the traditional safari routes. Here's what makes these regions truly special:

1. Lake Nakuru

Known for its stunning pink flamingos, Lake Nakuru is a bird lover’s paradise. At the heart of Lake Nakuru National Park, this alkaline lake draws in thousands of flamingos, creating a spectacular sight as they line the shores. The park is also home to over 400 bird species and offers excellent opportunities to spot rhinos, lions, and leopards.

2. Lake Naivasha

Located in the Great Rift Valley, Lake Naivasha is a freshwater gem surrounded by lush greenery. It is the perfect spot for boating safaris where you can float past hippos, spot exotic birds, and take in the tranquillity of the area. Nearby attractions such as Hell’s Gate National Park and Crescent Island offer unique opportunities to hike, bike, and walk amongst wildlife.

3. Lake Turkana

For the adventurous traveller, Lake Turkana, also known as the “Jade Sea,” offers an off-the-beaten-path experience. Its remote location in Northern Kenya makes it one of the least visited but most rewarding destinations. The turquoise waters of this desert lake are contrasted by the volcanic landscape around it, and its shores are rich in prehistoric fossils.

4. Lake Victoria

As the largest lake in Africa and the second-largest freshwater lake in the world, Lake Victoria offers more than just scenic views. The lake, which straddles the borders of Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania, is an integral part of the Western Kenya Tourism Circuit. The region around Kisumu offers rich cultural experiences, including visits to local markets, fishing villages, and nearby islands like Rusinga and Mfangano.

5. Lake Baringo and Lake Bogoria

These two lesser-known lakes in the Rift Valley offer contrasting experiences. Lake Baringo, a freshwater lake, is ideal for birdwatching and fishing, while nearby Lake Bogoria, an alkaline lake, is famous for its hot springs and geysers, as well as its population of flamingos.

Lake Naivasha Sopa Lodge

Lake Naivasha Sopa Lodge is a beautiful safari lodge on the shores of Lake Naivasha in the Great Rift Valley. Set in one hundred and fifty acres of grassland studded with Acacia bushes and trees, the resort is not only home to resident giraffe, waterbuck and both Vervet and Colobus monkeys, but it is also a night stop for the hippos when they leave the lake every night to come and trim the grass on our expansive lawns. The resort boasts a serene and picturesque location overlooking Lake Naivasha and its surrounding wildlife, making it an ideal destination for nature lovers and adventure seekers. Lake Naivasha is one of the two freshwater lakes of the Rift Valley in Kenya, the other being Lake Baringo. The lake measures approximately 177sq km and is an ornithologist's delight with an impressive list of bird species. Lake Naivasha is unusual in having no known outlet, normally a prerequisite for a freshwater lake! Accommodation at Lake Naivasha Sopa Lodge The resort offers a range of accommodation options to cater to the needs of different types of guests. The standard rooms are well-appointed and feature en-suite bathrooms, king-size beds, satellite TV, and private balconies with breathtaking views of the lake and the surrounding landscape. The suites are more spacious and come with a separate living area and a mini-bar, while the villas are designed for families and groups of friends, with multiple bedrooms and a private garden. With Sopa’s traditional and conscientious care for the environment, they carefully positioned all the buildings on the property so they did not have to fall any of the many trees there. As a result, they had to develop a radically innovative and artistic design for the main public area building which now snakes its way between the trees with long and graceful curves. It is also why you might well ask just why the two swimming pools with a children’s section and a pool complex with its bar, snack kitchen, pizzeria and health spa; our tennis court; two conference halls with their four differently sized meeting areas, and the stables are so widely set apart. read more read less
