This lake is in Alego Usonga, Siaya County. Siaya is the home of Lake Kanyaboli and the endangered Sitatunga. Around the second largest ox-bow lake in Africa, families of boulder rocks sit in interesting patterns on each other, some precariously, but they never tumble.
In this rural enclave there is nothing but blissful peace. Most people use bicycle and donkeys for transport and to fetch water from the lake. The 1,000-hectare Lake Kanyaboli, is one of the three components that make up the phenomenal Yala Swamp complex. The other two features are wetlands in the delta of the Yala River and Lake Sare, one of several outlets of the Yala River into Lake Victoria.
Patient fishermen decorate the still waters in their traditional canoes and fishing rods. The chirping of birds confirm that the area has been classified as one of Kenya’s 60 important bird areas, making it an ornithological paradise, a real pearl for tourism.
On this tour, you will visit Lake Kanyaboli National Reserve.
