Lake Nakuru
A Rift Valley lake park used as the middle stop between Amboseli and the Maasai Mara.
Lake Nakuru is on the classic road circuit because it is a practical night between Amboseli and the Mara, and because rhino are a reason people stop.
Flamingo numbers on the lake rise and fall. A photo of a pink shoreline is not a promise for the week you travel.
One night is the usual stay on the 5-day route. The 7-day route can keep a second night.
