Lake Baringo Kenya
|
|
|
Lake Baringo lies in the solitude of the semi-desert, a haven of peace and beauty in harsh, rugged but majestic surroundings. Its beauty derives as much from an overwhelming sense of repose with nature as its scenic distinction. Until a few years ago Lake Baringo was considered well off the beaten track. Indeed this was an explorer's country. J.W. Gregory, who traveled on foot from Mombasa a 100 years ago formulated his theory of the creation of the Rift Valley from evidence found at
Lake
Baringo.
Earlier the slave caravans passed this way and the remains of Fort Baringo built to try and abate this outrage are still visible. Hippo and crocodile are plentiful, the latter considered harmless by the local people, the Njemps who fish, standing in water up to their shoulders, whilst crocodile bent on the same mission, swim quietly by.
Visitors are entranced by the multitude of birds at Lake Baringo. 400 species have been listed in the area and the Goliath Heronry on a rocky islet in the lake (known locally as Gibraltar) is world famous. Bird watching, on foot or by boat, is only one of several leisure activities available. Others include fishing, water sports or a visit to a Njemps village where a cultural tour, crafts 7 traditional dancing is experienced
