Lake Nakuru Lodge - Lake Nakuru
Lake
Nakuru Lodge is situated in a wonderland which lies in the heart of one of Kenya's
most densely animal populated wetland national parks (Ramsar Site), only two
hours leisurely drive on first class roads from Nairobi, through some of the
most exciting scenery to be seen anywhere in Africa. The 156 km Nairobi-Nakuru
roads 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. The views are equally impressive for the visitor who
uses a charter aircraft for 25-minute flight to Lake Nakuru National Park airstrip
situated at the southern side of the park at the Rhino Sanctuary Headquarters

in the South East Ecological niche of the park is 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.

bustle of the city. The lodge blends well with its surrounding and the animals
often browse peacefully close to the lodge and environs, much to the fascination
of the visitors.

or suites. The service is unmatched anywhere in Kenya, a country renowned for
hospitality.

a days 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 guests is interesting and varied.
The Baboon Cliff lookout sits next to Honeymoon Hill.
