Kenya Safaris: Island Camp Baringo

Island Camp Baringo (Rift Valley – Central Kenya 4 )

Situated on an enchanting, remote island in Lake Baringo, each comfortable tent, with its own bathroom, is tucked away under the shade of spreading acacias, and separated by green lawns and natural rockeries. The views of the surrounding Rift Valley are at their most spectacular from the refreshing, clear pool situated at the pinnacle of the camp. Winding paths lead down from the pool to the informal dining and bar areas.

Over 400 bird species make this an ornithologists haven. Boat trips to the surrounding islands to view hippo, crocodile, birdlife and local fishing villages can be arranged. Guided walks to the nearby hot springs and around the island are very popular. The lake is excellent for water skiing, swimming and windsurfing. A day trip to Lake Bogoria, with its multitude of flamingos, hot geysers and the rare greater kudu, is a unique experience. Island Camp provides the perfect change of scene in between visiting the many national parks - a chance to relax and recuperate in enchanted surroundings. Enjoy the beauty, tranquility and intimacy of one of Kenya's most exquisite camps.
