Description
Naivasha is derived from Nai'posha from the massai dialect which meaning "rough waters.” It is a name that represents the mighty lake. Lake Naivasha stands out in the Kenyan rift valley by having the highest elevation. It consists of a complex yet articulate combination of volcanic rocks and sedimentary deposits.Lake Naivasha is one of the truly astonishing examples of aquatic beauty. One of the most famous freshwater lakes in Kenya for its amazing jaw-droppingly gorgeous scenery. Hell's Gate National Park lies south of Lake Naivasha in Kenya. Spectacular scenery including the towering cliffs, water-gouged gorges, stark rock towers, scrub clad volcanoes and belching plumes of geothermal steam make it one of the most atmospheric Parks in Africa. Embark on a guided tour of boat safari where you will witness the concentrated wildlife, the vibrant birdlife and the beauty of the lake. Have a nice time dipping in the hot water at Ol Kara, known to be the largest geothermal spa in all Africa. The spa is a man made pool offering visitors an escape from the crowds and bustle into a tranquil and relaxing environment.
