Nabiyotum, Kenya

From series “Majestic and Spectacular Craters and Crater Lakes”
Nabiyotum is the most famous and beautiful crater in Kenya. It is located next to another prominent landmark, the largest alkaline lake in the world of Turkana. One of the main characteristics of the crater is the incomparable view. It looks like a huge funnel with very steep and high slopes. The crater is almost surrounded on all sides by the strange alkaline lake. This landscape is simply peculiar.

The travelers, who want to see these natural wonders with their own eyes, are to prepare themselves for the long and dangerous adventure. The lake and crater are located almost 70 kilometers from the nearest town, Lodvar. Such a distance may seem slight to experienced tourists. The road, however, extends through very complicated and dangerous places. The wild animals are the main danger to the tourists, so it is recommended to go to the crater only accompanied by the ranger.

The crater was relatively recently discovered, in 1888. The scientists have determined that the crater is of volcanic origin. The curiously regular geological form is one of the main features of the crater. The tourists, who are not afraid of the long journey through Kenyan desert, can see two distinctive natural sights of the world meaning. Next - Santa Margarida
