Lake Turkana in Kenya

Back to Kenya Map | View Kenya Overland Tours

Lake Turkana is the most northern lake of the Great Rift Valley lakes and is a vast expanse of jade green water that creates an eerie barrenness. Due to the high salinity levels there is practically no wildife or plant life that lives in the lake, hence the eerieness of the area. Thorn trees sparsely populate Lake Turkana and the conditions of the area are harsh.

Several tribes have managed to settle in the area and adjust to the harsh conditions. These tribes are part of the few remaining practicing desert tribes.

Surrounding the lake are beautiful volcanic outcrops and the contrasting images and isolated beauty makes for spectacular photography. Experience this area of Kenya and you will have experienced a truly remarkable and unique destination.
