    A very peaceful lake area which is wonderful to gaze and to see the beautiful flamingo's, all 10's of thousands that inhabit the shoreline near the nature preserve that is also well worth the visit.

    This is a beautiful place. Just off A104 next to Rubis Kikopey, a 15-25 minute drive in would land you at the KWS gate. Simple service at the gate; with 250/= per adult head and 125/= for children. Students also get the child offer. Cars with less 6 seats pay 300/= and those with more than 6 seats pay 1030/= for the vehicles. Very cool hot springs, beautiful view of the lake and flamingos. Signs however should be put up to get to the place, lest one gets lost into the wilderness of pure glam views😍. Various wildlife along the road into the place.

    Beauty and peace is what you have here. Of you don't make any noise you would here only the birds. Unfortunately the hotel I was staying in was located in the side where flamingos do not come. A must visit place. The lake, birds and quite. There are couple of hotels near the lake to choose from. You could walk-in for the day or stay over. I would strongly suggest stay over.

    We visited the lake through the Soysambu Conservancy, which I highly recommend. The lake is beautiful and has wonderful bird life. There are also other animals along the lakeshore including buffalo, waterbuck, zebra, gazelles, and of course cattle.
