Beyond the wonderful and enjoyable riding and the beautiful scenery, you will get incredible sightings of the world famous Kenya wildlife from the seat of your motorbike. The itinerary takes riders from the Great Rift Valley, into the North Rift, up the West coast of Lake Turkana and back down into the North Rift. The terrain and scenery change a lot on this trip – from sandy, red soil, clay to rocky sections. The daily temperatures vary greatly too – the further north we travel, the hotter the temperatures. West Turkana is very different from the East side – more sand and less volcanic rocks. This showcases the rarely visited parts of Kenya – a true adventure on 2 wheels!
Upon arrival, look for our driver with a Dusty Helmets sign
Arrival in Nairobi. Collect from the airport and take to the Tamarind Tree Hotel
Early morning collection from Nairobi. Approximately a three-hour drive to Punda Milias Camp close to the city of Nakuru. Meet your riding crew. After a briefing about the bikes and safety while out riding, time to ride! We go explore the surrounding hills with beautiful views of the lakes and ride in the Eburu forest.
Full day out and about exploring Soysambu Conservancy. The Conservancy is home to plenty of plains game, zebras, giraffes, gazelles, as well as buffalos amongst other animals. Riding on and around the conservancy is unbelievably beautiful and seeing the animals from the seat of your motor bike is an experience of a lifetime. Option of a picnic lunch out, or lunch back at camp. There are plenty of routes we can ride, the whole area offers different terrains and different levels of riding – from intermediate to more technical riding.
After breakfast, ride from Punda Milias Camp to Lake Baringo. This ride takes us through sisal plantations, down to Maji Moto and on to Kampi Ya Samaki at Lake Baringo. About 200 km and 5 hours of riding. Leave the bikes on the mainland and take the boat across to Island Camp.
After breakfast, we start the ride North. Through small villages, lush farmland to the start of the sandy desert in South Turkana. The temperatures are rising. The scenery is spectacular.
An early start today to avoid the heat. Ride from South Turkana to Lodwar and on to Eliye Springs. The ride today is long, and the temperatures get hot. The last section is through sand dunes to get to camp.
Half day riding along Lake Turkana. Eliye is a small village with natural springs. The West Turkana shoreline is sandy and has doum palms – resembling a coastal beach. Option of visiting a Turkana homestead
Another early morning start – ride from Eliye Springs to the foot of the Cherangani Hills and the Marich Pass. The ride is sandy in places, and we pass many small villages along the way. Landscape is harsh but beautiful.
From Marich Pass, the landscape becomes lush again, with forest, mango plantations and hills. The terrain changes from sandy to more red and clay soil. We ride a section on a secondary tarmac road to get to our accommodation.
After breakfast, ride back to Lake Baringo. We do approximately 55KM on a secondary tarmac road to the city of Kabarnet. From here we ride off road down to the shores of Lake Baringo.
Early morning departure from Lake Baringo back to our base at Soysambu. The route we take today is shorter than on day 3. Showers and lunch. Head to Nairobi by road in vehicles. Drop off at JKIA for your international flight back home.
