Lake Naivasha & Hell’s Gate

Lake Naivasha is a freshwater lake found in the great rift valley of Kenya. It has a dense population of animals such as hippos and several species of birds. Travelers enjoy riding on waters with the help of boat operators at a favorable fee. Horticultural practices surrounding the lake also present a stunning economic feature that not only is attractive to tourists’ view but also provides them with an opportunity to learn techniques employed to carry out horticultural farming.

Hell’s Gate National Park is located in Naivasha. It harbors a wide range of wildlife and more than 90 species of birds. Towering cliffs, gorges, volcanoes, and geothermal steams form the main attraction in the park. Walking safaris are common in the park; hence, it is suitable for family members to take a walk in the park. Besides, travelers can pitch tents within the park and enjoy biking. What is more, visitors can climb to the Fischer’s tower or central tower to view animals and the landscape all round.
