Lake Natron is one of the most amazing places in Tanzania, the water of the salt-alkaline reservoir is dangerous for living beings. However, it is a nesting place for the small flamingo, which arranges its nests on the islets, decorating the reservoir with its presence and attracting tourists here.

During certain periods, as a result of the vital activity of microorganisms, the water of the lake turns red and pink, which adds to the attractiveness of the lake.

The water temperature in the lake can rise up to +50°C, the pH value of the alkalinity of the environment ranges from 9 to 10.5. Given this, you can not swim in the reservoir, even slight contact with water can cause severe burns.
