Can be given pass. Visit only if you are interested in Hot-spring and flamingos... Too far for travelers!

A place to see hot springs and flamingos. Worth a stop on the way to Lake Baringo.

Unfortunately the rains limited our view of the park at Lake Bogoria the roads were not passable--- however we came here for the flamingos and it did not disappoint. We were up close to the many flamingos flying in and out. If you are not wanting to see flamingos then I would suggest you verify that the roads are accessible. We enjoyed our time here and the accommodation were nice and the food was great.

We chose Lake Bogoria instead of Nakuru for the flamingo, but there weren't many in this time of year, much less than that in Amboseli.

Worth going for the flamingos and the setting. Avoid July -August as the only hotel here is overrun by van loads of Asian tourists giving it a package feel.

Nice lake with some hot springs and many flamingos but less mammals. If you combine it with a stay at Lake Baringo, it´s more interesting!

Hot springs, geysers, flamingos, and few tourists.

Lake Bogoria is off the usual safari circuit. It doesn't have the wildlife or resorts of Lake Nakuru and it isn't boat friendly like Lake Baringo. But it does have boiling hot springs, erupting geysers, colorful landscapes, and loads of flamingos. It's seriously hot here - an outdoor spa where you'll see locals taking in the steam to cleanse their skin, sinuses, and some say, their spirit. Worth a detour if you're in the area but not a destination in and of itself.
