Located close to the famous Lake Nakuru, Elmenteita is a tiny soda lake, nestled in the eastern sweep of the Great African Rift Valley. Covering an area of just 18 sq km, the picturesque Lake Elmenteita is frequented by thousands of pinkish flamingos, making it a perfect destination for nature lovers and bird watchers alike. The lush growth of vegetation around the lake also shelters Zebras, Gazelles, Elands, Warthogs and Hippos. As the lake is not a protected area, visitors can freely roam around the lake and explore its unique wildlife.
The beautiful Elmenteita is fed by the nearby Kekopey hot springs and small streams- the Meroronyi and Kariandusi. Adding to its beauty are surrounding landscapes that include a series of volcanic rocky faults, spectacular cliffs, volcanic cones, and hot springs. The nearby Soysambu Wildlife Sanctuary is also worth visiting. Lake Elmenteita and its lush surroundings provide ideal opportunities for nature walking, birding and game viewing. It's also a perfect retreat for those who are looking for a quite and peaceful ambience.
