Lake Nakuru National Park is a renowned protected area located in the Rift Valley region of Kenya, about 160 kilometers northwest of Nairobi. The park was established in 1961 and covers an area of approximately 188 square kilometers. Its focal point is the picturesque Lake Nakuru, a shallow alkaline lake famous for its large population of flamingos. The park was primarily established to protect the diverse birdlife, especially the huge flocks of lesser and greater flamingos that inhabit the lake.

Aside from flamingos, Lake Nakuru National Park is home to a wide variety of other bird species, making it a paradise for birdwatchers. Over 450 species of birds have been recorded in the park, including pelicans, cormorants, herons, and storks.

In addition to its avian population, the park is also home to various mammal species, including endangered black rhinos, Rothschild's giraffes, zebras, buffalo, and lions. The park's diverse habitats, which range from grasslands to woodlands and rocky escarpments, support this rich array of wildlife.

Visitors to Lake Nakuru National Park can enjoy game drives, birdwatching tours, nature walks, and picnics. The park offers stunning scenery, especially with the backdrop of the lake and the surrounding acacia forests and grasslands. It's a popular destination for both local and international tourists seeking to experience Kenya's natural beauty and wildlife diversity.
