peaceful oasis in the dry thorn country, bursting with birdlife and with a captivating characteristic of its own. L Baringo possesses two major ornithological attractions: the Gibraltar Island with the largest nesting colony of Goliath Herons in East Africa and the escarpment immediately west of Campi ya Samaki on the western side of the lake. It is the home of Verreaux's Eagle, rare Bristle crowned Starling and Hemprich's Hornbill. Apart from birds, the lake houses a sizeable population of crocodile's and hippos. Meals

Dinner and overnight at a lodge overlooking the lake.
