Hell’s Gate National Park

Hell’s Gate National Park lies beside Lake Naivasha and covers an area of 68.25 square km. This Park was named for its pair of massive red tinged cliffs framing a geothermically active interior of steam vents and bubbling springs. The park is home to a profusion of plains game and birdlife. It is characterized by diverse topography and geological scenery. It is an important home of the lammergeyer (The Bearded Vulture).

Walking is permitted, making it ideal for hiking, biking, and rock climbing.

Hell’s Gate has two gates that are used by visitors – the main Elsa Gate and the Olkaria Gate. The latter also serves the Olkaria Geothermal Station that is located inside the National Park.
