The lake is renowned as a bird sanctuary with over 400 bird species at times, there can be up to 2 million greater and lesser flamingos, as well as tens of thousands of other birds. It’s also rhino sanctuary with excellent wildlife viewing.
Your game viewing will start immediately as you enter the park gates, arriving at the lodge in time for lunch. An afternoon game viewing has been scheduled for you, which will depart at 4:00PM. The park’s landscape includes areas of marsh, grasslands alternating with rocky cliffs and outcrops, stretches of acacia woodland and rocky hillsides covered with a Euphorbia forest on the eastern perimeter. Large animals strive in the dry land surrounding the lake such as the endangered Rothschild giraffe, cape buffaloes, waterbucks, gazelles, leopards, and several species of primates.
