By road

From the turning off the main Nanyuki – Isiolo road up to the log cabins, a four-wheel drive vehicle is needed, and the drive should take about 1.5 hours.  The road deteriorates somewhat from the hollow trees onwards; the trees are a good half way mark in terms of time.  The road ends at the Kizita gorge, where you leave your vehicle.  From here to the cabins is a 15-minute, challenging walk through the gorge.  The staff will meet you where the road ends and will carry your luggage to the cabins.

By air

There is an airstrip about 1.5kms from the cabins and a heli pad about 100 meters from the cabins.

By horse

There is now an option of riding to Rutundu. Neighbouring Kisima Farm provides trained polo horses to ride through the moorland and up to Rutundu. Overnight stays are a must in this case. Please be warned that the horses are well trained polo horses and you need to be an experienced rider. Please contact rutundu@lewa.org to arrange this.

By foot

Walking to rutundu is an option however, we are unable to provide any logistical help for this, other than a map.
