Sibiloi National Park, located in northern Kenya along the eastern shores of Lake Turkana, is a UNESCO listed site known for its rich paleontological and archaeological significance. Often referred to as the “Cradle of Mankind,” the park is home to Koobi Fora, where fossils of early hominids, including Homo habilis and Australopithecus, have been discovered, providing invaluable insights into human evolution.
Beyond its historical significance, Sibiloi features a dramatic landscape of volcanic formations, open savannahs, and the vast, shimmering waters of Lake Turkana. The park supports diverse wildlife, including Grevy’s zebras, crocodiles, hippos, and a variety of bird species such as flamingos and pelicans. Due to its remote location, Sibiloi remains an untouched wilderness, attracting adventurous travelers, researchers, and nature enthusiasts looking for an off-the-beaten-path safari experience.
