@Mpenzi,
The shortest is Nakuru-Subukia-Nyahururu-Ndaragwa-Mweiga-King'ong'o-Kiganjo-NaruMoro-Nanyuki but the more scenic would be Nakuru-Subukia-Nyahururu-Rumuruti-Oljogi-Nanyuki-Narumoro-Kiganjo-King'ong'o into Nyeri.....Remember,you will be passing through bandit country (Laikipia plains)and therefore,avoid night travel

@Njung'e: I certainly has been long. I didn't get to Kwa Maina, I just got very scared when it started raining. If I had more company (other than my siz) I would have dared to go that way. Will definately do that when I go to Loyiangalani next year.

I wish you had responded sooner :(, but that is an excuse for another road trip!

Eerily, when I got to Ol Kalou, I wondered what Guka is doing! hehe!

I am to the East....very close to those blue beautiful mountains. That's where i want to retire to when i am done chasing money and so i am rarely there. Next time you give a buzz when you are passing.You can't miss a live goatsmile ....When is Loyiangalani?

Thanks Njung'e. Are there must-see sites to stop at on these routes?

Loyiangalani is in Turkana, right on the lake. Have flown into that place but now I want to drive.

Another question for in-house expert on Kenyan roads aka Njung'e smile What is the best route from Nakuru to Bogoria to Nyahururu to Nanyuki? Sorry I am asking all these as I have never travelled these areas.

Oh yes!!......There is the escarpment stop high above Subukia,Thompson's Falls and if you use the Rumuruti route,you might consider a day stop over at Ol-Jogi ranch ( It's not a cheap place but it's worth every coin).There is also Kuki's place (Ol Ari Nyiro /Mukutan retreat) but you would need no fewer than two days to enjoy what this expansive conservancy has to offer.

@Mpenzi,
There is no accessible route fro Bogoria to Nyahururu.You would still have to turn back to Nakuru and then use either of the two alternative routes to Nanyuki.

@Sasha,
Been there by road via Marsabit.... a tough route.Jipange proper!

It's the bush-path leading to Ng'arua i guess which means it doesn't pass through Nyahururu.
