Êtes-vous prêt à transformer vos passe-temps en activité lucrative ?
A rare geographical duo where you can trade the traditional safari vehicle for a mountain bike or a pair of hiking boots.

Just a stone's throw away, Lake Naivasha offers a contrasting aquatic escape; it is a high-altitude freshwater lake—a rarity in the salty Rift Valley—renowned for its dense hippo population and world-class birdwatching.

Province de la vallée du Rift
Mahiu, the Great Rift Valley Viewpoint offers one of Kenya's most iconic and breathtaking panoramic vistas. Perched on the edge of the eastern escarpment, this popular roadside stop allows travelers to gaze out over the vast floor of the 6,000-kilometer-long geological trench, where the sheer scale of the earth’s movement becomes visible through a tapestry of rolling hills, lush greenery, and distant volcanic peaks like Mount Longonot and Mount Suswa. Visitors can often find local vendors selling intricate Maasai handicrafts, beadwork, and wood carvings, making it a cultural gateway for those heading toward the Masai Mara or the rift's famous lakes.

Parc national de Hell's Gate
Hell's Gate National Park, located near Lake Naivasha in Kenya, is a rare gem where the typical "stay in the vehicle" safari rules are tossed aside in favor of raw adventure. Famous for its towering basalt cliffs, deep gorges, and dramatic plumes of geothermal steam, the park offers a prehistoric landscape that famously inspired the scenery of The Lion King. Because it lacks large predators like lions or elephants, it is one of the few places in East Africa where you can hike, rock climb, or cycle directly past grazing zebras, giraffes, and buffalo. Whether you're exploring the winding paths of the Ol Njorowa Gorge or soaking in the natural spa at the end of a long ride, Hell’s Gate delivers an immersive, high-energy experience that feels more like an expedition than a simple sightseeing tour.

Lac Naivasha
Nestled at the highest point of Kenya’s Great Rift Valley at 1,884 meters, Lake Naivasha is a stunning freshwater oasis renowned for its vibrant biodiversity and dramatic scenery. Its name, derived from the Maasai word Nai'posha meaning "rough water," alludes to the sudden afternoon storms that can transform its calm, blue surface into a churning landscape. The lake is a world-class destination for birdwatchers, hosting over 400 avian species—including the iconic African fish eagle—alongside a massive population of over 1,500 hippos that wallow in its papyrus-fringed shallows. Beyond the water, the surrounding acacia woodlands and private sanctuaries like Crescent Island allow visitors the rare opportunity to walk freely among giraffes, zebras, and waterbucks. While it serves as a vital hub for Kenya’s floriculture industry and geothermal energy production, the lake remains a tranquil retreat and a popular gateway to the nearby volcanic landscapes of Hell’s Gate National Park.
