Okuningi mayelana nepaki
I-reservoir isendaweni ephakeme yamamitha angu-1880 ngaphezu kwezinga lolwandle e-Afrikan iphutha elikhulu futhi inemvelaphi ye-volcanic. Ekuqaleni kwekhulu lama-20, i-lake Naivasha yaphela ngokuphelele, kodwa eminyakeni embalwa kamuva, yaphinde yagcwala amanzi emvula. Ama-guidebooks akhombisa indawo engamakhilomitha angu-139 square, kodwa lokhu kuyinhlangano evamile, ehlukahluka kakhulu futhi incike esikhathini sonyaka sezulu. I-Lake Naivasha inamamitha angaba ngu-30 kuya phezulu futhi kuphela ogwini lingaphansi kwesithupha.
Isimbizane sidume kakhulu ngezilwane zayo ezicebile. Lapha kuphila izinhlobo ezingaphezu kuka-400 zezinyoni, okuyipharadesi yama-ornithologists futhi iheha abavakashi abaningi emhlabeni wonke.
