I was recently sampling craft beer with a friend at Sirville Brewery and Lounge located at Galleria Shopping Mall. Our chat inadvertently drifted from the flavour of the Tapas we were washing down with Amboseli Bitter to matters travel. Turns out Sirville Brewery shares a name with a lodge located in Elementaita, also known as Elmenteita.
A few weeks later, talk turned into action as I approached Lake Elementaita, one of the most underrated tourist destination in Kenya despite being a UNESCO Heritage and RAMSAR site. Granted, this soda lake is rather puny compared to her Rift Valley peers but what she lacks in size, she makes up for in sheer beauty. Besides, the amount of life she supports is enviable. At least 400 bird species have been recorded here.
