The plan is to travel north from Nakuru to visit some friends.I will get to know a new part of Kenya.
Turning right at Loruk to pass on the north side of Lake Baringo.Distance from Loruk to Maralal is 157km.Beautiful landscape generally it felt like we were going uphill. And as expected wen we reached the highest point,we could see the Lake Baringo in front of us.The road was mainly hard rocks and the speed between 30-50km/h.Coming down from the highest point down on the plains the soil was more standard "red" as in Nyanza.At the the Suguta airstrip we turned left onto the main road and we are about 1hour from Maralal.
Suguta airstrip 0.714694N,36.588224E
On the main road to Maralal we spotted 11 giraffes on the left side of the road.They were all watching tourists in our direction. |
