Aerial views of the Entebbe peninsula and the intricate coastline of the northern lake shores.

On very clear days, the massive silhouette of this extinct shield volcano can be seen far to the north.
Lake Naivasha
A glimpse of the high-altitude freshwater lake nestled in the Great Rift Valley during the descent.
