Lake Natron, located in northern Tanzania near the Kenyan border, is a breathtaking salt and soda lake known for its striking red waters and vast flocks of Lesser Flamingos. Nestled within the East African Rift Valley, this unique alkaline lake, with a pH as high as 10.5, creates a surreal landscape that supports the world’s largest breeding ground for flamingos. Despite its harsh conditions, Lake Natron’s mineral-rich waters have played a role in indigenous traditions for centuries. A visit to Lake Natron offers an extraordinary experience of Tanzania’s untouched natural beauty and unique ecological wonders.
