Wondering on how to get to Lake Turkana?
Lake Turkana's east and west shores are gotten to independently and are actually isolated by the tremendous uncrossable Suguta Valley south of the lake. The east shore is gotten to by means of Marsabit and Maralal with Loiyangalani, a little desert garden town, as the main issue. The west shore can be drawn nearer by means of Kitale with Lowdar as the main issue of access.

The lake is a two-day drive from Nairobi. The outing twists through other picturesque objections in Kenya, and explorers reliably experience Rendille camel bands and pass by roaming settlements and little towns en route. Explorers regularly make resting stops at Samburu, Maralal, or Marsabit.

There are airstrips on the east and west shores for sanctioned flights. The flights give stunning displays of the Suguta Valley and offer an elevated perspective of the actual lake. Lake Turkana is quite possibly the most far off objections in Kenya, yet one that rewards the striking globe-trotter with lavish prizes. It ought to be visited as a component of an expertly coordinated safari.

Wondering about the origin of the word Turkana?
On 6 March 1888, the water body was initiated Lake Rudolf by Count Sámuel Teleki de Szék, a Hungarian, and his accomplice Lieutenant Ludwig Ritter Von Höhnel, an Austrian, to pay tribute to Crown Prince Rudolf of Austria. They were the main Europeans recorded to have visited the lake after a broad safari across East Africa. The lake held its European name during the pilgrim time of the British in East Africa. In 1975 after Kenya's freedom, the then president, Mzee Jomo Kenyatta, renamed it after the Turkana, the pervasive clan.
