<p>Magical memories are created, that&#8217;s the sole reason we embarked on a one hour thirty minutes’ drive from Nairobi to arrive at the Sirville Lake Elementaita Lodge located along the Nakuru-Nairobi Highway. Our arrival marks the beginning of our magical stay in this part of Kenya&#8217;s Rift valley. The quiet tranquillity at the lodge is ideal for weekend getaways. The lake is a bird’s haven ideal for birding.</p>

<p>We take a nature walk along the beautiful shallow lakes in the magical rift valley unearthing local history. The lake derives her name from the Maasai word <em>mtaita,</em> meaning a place of darkness. The lake is surrounded by more than 400 species of birds with the flamingos and the pelicans being the main species.</p>
