The Great Rift Valley is one of the natural wonders of the world. The freshwater and soda lakes that line the floor of the valley each offer fantastic scenery and birdlife, including the world’s largest flamingo population. Active travelers can explore the dormant volcanoes of Longonot, Suswa, and Menengai or even ride mountain bikes through herds of zebras beneath the cliffs of Hell’s Gate. The shores along Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha provide for those who want to relax and are ideal for idyllic weekends.
Furthermore, the Kenya Lake System, located in the Great Rift Valley, is an area of outstanding natural beauty. It is comprised of three inter-connecting lakes - Lake Bogoria, Lake Nakuru, and Lake Elementaita - and is enlisted as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
