Lake Baringo has an average depth of only 8
meters (25 ft), and its three islands (Ol Kokwa, Teddy Bear, and Gibraltar) are
breeding grounds for the statuesque, and one and a half meter (5 ft) Goliath
heron, the largest of the heron species. The surrounding countryside is arid,
red soiled, and sparsely vegetated. The shores are a mixture of sand marsh,
which provide some cover and shade for the resident hippos. Accommodation is
available at Lake Baringo Club.
