The Great Rift Valley divides Kenya down the length of the country and we were driving in between those rifts at some point of time of our journey. It is home to big cats, elephants, Grevy’s zebras, and endangered Jackson’s hartebeests. Before the mud-road meets the highway at Loruk town, we made a small photo-stop at a viewpoint overlooking Lake Baringo – the freshwater lake known for different species of birds, crocodiles, and hippos. I love The main attractions of the Great Rift Valley the wonderful national parks and safari opportunities enabled by the wealth of wildlife.

Its a simple little hike up to the top of the observation hill. Its defiently worth it, we got to see the park at an amazing vantage point! We came here for lunch and got to see hippos during the day out of the water eating and basking in the sun! The bathrooms here were very nice and kept up as well.
