Lake Nakuru National Park

• Lake Nakuru National Park (188 km², 73mi²), created in 1961 around Lake Nakuru, near Nakuru Town.

• It is best known for its thousands, sometimes millions of flamingos nesting along the shores.

• The surface of the shallow lake is often hardly recognizable due to the continually shifting mass of pink.

• The number of flamingos on the lake varies with water and food conditions and the best vantage point is from Baboon Cliff.

• Also of interest is an area of 188 km (116 mi) around the lake fenced off as a sanctuary to protect Rothschild giraffes, black rhinos and white rhinos, gazelles, lions, cheetahs and leopards.
