Day 3

Lake Natron

Your day begins after breakfast at around 8:00 am. We leave with packed lunches for Lake Natron. Lake Natron is a surreal destination and a unique natural spectacle. Its waters are highly alkaline and unusually shallow, with an average depth of just one meter. After checking into your lodge and taking a short break, put on your walking shoes as a Maasai tribesman takes you on a walk along the shores of Lake Natron in search of birds, particularly flamingos. Lake Natron is the largest and most regular breeding ground for Lesser Flamingos in East Africa, hosting up to 2 million during the breeding season. The majority of egg-laying and hatching takes place between September and January. After the hike, you'll return to your lodge for dinner and a well-deserved rest.
