Hiking and Cycling: Unlike many other parks, Hell’s Gate allows visitors to explore on foot or by bike. You can hike or cycle through the park's stunning scenery, which makes for a more intimate, up-close experience with nature.

Birdwatching Paradise: Lake Naivasha is a birdwatcher's haven, with over 400 species of birds, including pink-backed pelicans, herons, and African fish eagles. Its rich biodiversity makes it one of the best spots for bird enthusiasts.

Crescent Island: Accessible by boat, Crescent Island is a unique wildlife sanctuary on the lake, offering a chance to walk among giraffes, zebras, and wildebeest in their natural habitat. It’s often less crowded, which gives you more space to enjoy the experience.

    Lake Naivasha

    Boat Ride on Lake Naivasha One of the highlights of visiting Lake Naivasha is the boat ride. The one-hour boat tour typically allows you to explore the calm waters while spotting wildlife. Hippos are commonly seen, as the lake is home to one of the largest hippo populations in Kenya. The boat ride also offers great opportunities for birdwatching, with sightings of over 400 bird species around the lake, including pelicans, kingfishers, and herons. You might also spot other animals like giraffes and buffaloes on the surrounding shores, especially if you’re lucky. Some tours also take you to Crescent Island, a sanctuary where you can walk among the animals.
