Kijabe: Paragliding & Lake Naivasha Boat Ride

After your flight, continue your adventure just an hour away in Naivasha, where calm waters and wildlife encounters await. Lake Naivasha, one of the Great Rift Valley’s freshwater lakes, is famous for its thriving birdlife, hippos, and scenic boat rides. The contrast between the soaring heights of Kijabe and the tranquil waters of Naivasha makes this day perfectly balanced.

Glide across the shimmering lake, spotting pods of hippos lazing in the shallows, fish eagles swooping for their catch, and herds of grazing animals along the shoreline. The fresh air and stunning views of Mount Longonot in the distance make the ride even more memorable.

Arrive at Crescent Island, a private sanctuary accessible only by boat. Once you step ashore, walk freely among wildlife—giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, waterbucks, and gazelles roam the island without predators. The experience is more like a walking safari than a typical game drive, giving you the rare opportunity to be on foot just a few meters away from these graceful creatures.
