Roberts Camp Facilities:

There are four thatched bandas each having two rooms with a single bed in it. Each banda shares a communal kitchen with a gas cooker, fridge and freezer, all utensils and an outside barbeque/eating area. The bandas also share a communal bathroom with a shower, set in a quiet shady corner of the camp.

Bedding, towels, mosquito nets are provided, and an electrical socket and a fan is also provided as Baringo is usually pretty hot throughout the year. The Bandas are names after birds, and the Heron, Stork and Spoonbill Bandas have two single beds.

There is one larger banda (The Coots Banda) which has a double bed and a single bed and its own adjacent toilet and shower. The Coots banda doesn’t have access to the kitchen shared by the other bandas as the guests tend to use the restaurant for meals or share meals with friends who are either camping or renting the Coots Cottage.

AREA INFORMATION : LAKE BARINGO

Found in North West of Kenya and having over 400 species of birdlife in this area, Lake Baringo is understandably a popular destination for birdwatchers. With its hot, dry climate, this freshwater lake and its surrounding area attract local fishermen who paddle their dug out canoes on the lake making a picturesque sight. Crocodiles and hippos lie, camouflaged, half submerged in the murky water. Fish eagles swoop, dive and call with their eerie scream, and surrounding the lake are mountain ranges which make a truly beautiful sight, and depending on the time of day, dramatic lighting can affect the whole panorama to create awe-inspiring effects; perfect for photography.

Most people who visit Baringo, like to also visit neighboring Lake Bogori which is smaller but interesting in its own right.

AREA INFORMATION : LAKE BOGORIA

Bogoria is a National Reserve and visitors to this long thin lake can see impressive hot springs and flamingos.
