Sarova :: Sarova Lion Hill Lodge

Set on a plateau in the Rift Valley, overlooking one of the world's greatest ornithological spectacles, Lake Nakuru, stands Sarova Lion Hill Lodge. The panoramic view from the Lodge reveals a shimmering pink glow across the Lake, created by millions of flamingos, pelicans and marabou storks; the landscape blossoms natural foliage and a startling variety of flower gardens. Sarova Lion Hill Lodge is a beautiful retreat set in Lake Nakuru National Park - home to thousands of pink Flamingos and pelicans. This exotic park boasts a rich concentration of wildlife including black and white Colobus Monkeys and is also a famed Rhino sanctuary. Look for temperamental black Rhinos browsing on bushes, and larger white Rhinos cropping the grass along the lakeside. Nowhere else will you get a photo of a Rhino backed by a mirage of pastel pink Flamingos on a shimmering soda lake.

The National Park is full of unusual environments including strange cactus-like Euphorbia trees and eerie forests of flakey-barked Fever trees 100 feet tall. It has also become renowned for its daytime Leopard sightings.
