Lake Baringo & Lake Bogoria Helicopter Day Trip Flying Safari excursion begins from Nanyuki, Laikipia, Lewa or Samburu. Fly over the majestic Great Rift Valley to Lake Baringo, a habitat for nearly 500 bird species, and home to hippo and crocodile. Just a short flight away from Baringo, we land at Lake Bogoria, and walk along the shoreline to watch the flamingo feeding.

 

About 40 million years ago the Great Rift Valley, that runs 6,000 km from Syria to Mozambique, was formed. In the hollows some of the oldest, largest and deepest lakes in the world now lie.

 

Kenya alone has eight lakes, both fresh water and alkaline, which sustain an astonishing diversity of life. On the western side of Kenya, north of the equator and located just 30 kilometers apart, are two of Kenya’s most exciting lakes – Baringo and Bogoria – both scenically spectacular, but each so different to one another! Here the altitude is 1,050 meters and daytime temperatures rarely drop below 30 Degrees centigrade.

 

Lake Baringo is a truly beautiful fresh water lake - critical habitat for nearly 500 bird species, and home to hippo and crocodile. Here, the Njemps fishermen continue a lifestyle little changed over 200 years. The lakes waters are muddy and gold in color, caused by fine sediments washed into the lake during the rains.


Your heli-excursion begins with a morning flight over the expansive Laikipia plains where elephant and buffalo are often seen in large numbers. The landscape drops dramatically over the eastern wall of the Rift Valley, as we approach Lake Baringo.

 

Lake Bogoria offers an equally thrilling, but very different spectacle. A shallow alkaline lake with salinity about twice that of seawater, framed by the dramatic 700 meter Siracho Range, is most famous for its flamingo that lines the white salty shores.


With their bright feathers and up-side down bills, flamingos are among the most easily recognized water birds. Blue-green algae and crustaceans on which they feed gives them their gorgeous pink color Migratory by nature, tens of thousands can live together in a single colony, and they often put on graceful displays of formation flying.

 

Just a short flight away from Baringo, we land at Lake Bogoria, and walk along the shoreline to watch the flamingo feeding. This is a geologist's paradise, with its simmering geothermal activity, and thrilling geyser like eruptions that occur now and then.

 

After a picnic lunch under a shady acacia tree, we take off, and head back over the escarpment, following a different flight path, back to our destination. With its unique features, stunning views all around, and amazing bird life, Lake Bogoria was gazetted as a National Park in 1973.

 

The lakes shores are also home to the rare Greater Kudu, buffalo, zebra and some smaller plains game. At times of drought, when grazing becomes scarce, the Park authorities allow pastoralists to graze the shores with their goats and cows.
