肯亞湖區探險去!

飽餐一頓囉!

肯亞湖系的湖泊都很淺而且鹼性;意味著這裡能養活諸如綠藻之類的植物,綠藻是許多水鳥的食物來源。

數百種鳥類在此茁壯成長,包括十三種面滅種威的鳥類及大白鵜鶘,牠們都以此區作為繁殖棲息的大本營。

水牛、獵豹、猴子和瀕危的羅斯柴爾德長頸鹿也都以此區為家。

其他自然景觀 野生動植物在東非大裂谷的這一區塊,並不是唯一的自然奇景。

裂谷標出一個所在地,在那裡,陸地在遠低於地表的地方被分裂開來。

這種地表下的岩塊離距造成地面上引人注目的諸多景觀;特別是走在柏格利亞湖周圍的時候,就能看到從間歇泉及溫泉處冉冉上升的水蒸氣。

遊客能在肯亞大裂谷從事的另外一些活動包括打高爾夫球、騎馬和徒步健行。

太陽下山後,有趣的活動也不會就此停止;由於河谷區遠離了都市光害,因此很多遊客都能觀看到高掛夜空閃閃發亮的星星。

如果你已經準備好要感受一次讓動物園黯然失色的野生動植物體驗,別猶豫了!

就到肯亞東非大裂谷湖系一遊吧。
