Lake Naivasha — A Tranquil Haven in the Rift Valley

Lake Naivasha, a serene freshwater lake in the Great Rift Valley, is a tranquil retreat surrounded by lush vegetation and teeming with wildlife. The lake is a haven for birdlife, hosting more than 400 species, including kingfishers, herons and African fish eagles. Its waters are home to hippos, while the surrounding papyrus swamps and acacia woodlands attract giraffes, zebras and waterbucks. Visitors can enjoy boat trips to Crescent Island, which offers guided walking safaris among free‑roaming animals. Lake Naivasha's proximity to Hell's Gate National Park and its calm ambience make it a popular destination for both relaxation and adventure.
