The Olkaria volcanic field contains over 80 eruption centers, some of which are visible south of Lake Naivasha in this 16 September 2019 Sentinel-2 Satellite image (N at the top). Recent activity formed the red-brown Ololbutot lava flow at the bottom of the image, which is approximately 3.5 km in the E-W direction. Satellite image courtesy of Copernicus Sentinel Data, 2019.
