French: Parcs nationaux du Lac Turkana
The Lake Turkana National Parks is a World Heritage site in Kenya defined by the UNESCO in 1997 and definitely a recommended natural sightseeing location.
It is on position 280 (672, 113) in our monthly survey..

"The most saline of Africa's large lakes, Turkana is an outstanding laboratory for the study of plant and animal communities. The three National Parks serve as a stopover for migrant waterfowl and are major breeding grounds for the Nile crocodile, hippopotamus and a variety of venomous snakes. The Koobi Fora deposits, rich in mammalian, molluscan and other fossil remains, have contributed more to the understanding of paleo-environments than any other site on the continent."
