    Nice place to visit in Nakuru National Park. From here, you can get the complete view of Lake Nakuru.

    Great view point overlooking almost the entire lake and park. Good amenities including shade and long drop toilet. But true to it's name, be careful of the baboons! The Hyraxes are super cute though.

    The best point to take a view of Lake Nakuru. There are baboons on this cliff as the name suggests. It is safe to visit here as there is a metal grill to protect visitors from tipping over the cliff
