From Baringo to Samburu along the
Loruk Road
A saloon carefully driven if the
weather is dry, otherwise a 4 wheel drive vehicle
This
is a terrific drive and can be completed in about 5 hours. There is very little
traffic and the scenery is superb. The impeccably dressed Samburu warriors
encountered on the road are also a magnificent sight. The map reprinted above is
quite accurate. Go to Loruk about 12 ks north of Kampi ya Samaki, and take a
right turn along a gravel road towards the Police Post. Follow the road west
through Tangulbei until you meet a T junction – right to Rumuruti or left to Maralal.
Take the left and go in a northwesterly direction for a good 50 ks until you
meet the C78 at another T junction. At this point go right in the direction of Womba.
After travelling about 110 ks, before you actually get to Womba there is a turn
right towards Isiolo,
which you take. This road after about 50-60 ks meets the A2 about 30 ks north of
Archers Post. Turn right here.
