Close by there is a beautiful gorge walk to the Engaresero waterfalls for acooling swim, which when combined with a visit to the lake and the opportunity to experience Masai culture in the local villages, all make Natron an enchanting place to break a safari for two or three days. Natron is also dominated by the immense Oldoinyo Lengai volcano, which though still active, makes a challenging climbing experience for those fit enough to undertake it. The lake is a safe breeding location because its caustic environment is a barrier against predators trying to reach their nests. Lake Natron is the only breeding ground in East Africa for 2.5 million Lesser Flamingo. Lake Natron covers an area 56 km (35 miles) long and 24 km (15 miles) wide but the water level changes due to evaporation.
The lake is in the vicinity of Ol Doinyo Lengai, which is visible on the southern part. This means solar energy, minimal water usage and measures designed to ensure the smallest carbon footprint possible, withoutcompromising on service and comfort.
