Getting there

Car

If you are traveling by car, start your journey from Nanyuki town, which is a common gateway to Laikipia Plateau. Drive on the Nanyuki-Meru road (A2) towards Meru. After about 12 kilometers, look for a sign indicating the turnoff to Ol Lentille. This will lead you onto a dirt road. Follow the dirt road for approximately 8 kilometers until you reach the entrance to Ol Lentille. Ensure your vehicle is suitable for rough terrain, as the roads can be bumpy.

Public Transportation

For those using public transportation, take a matatu (shared minibus) from Nanyuki town toward Meru. Inform the driver that you would like to get off at the turnoff for Ol Lentille; they will drop you at the main road intersection. From there, you will need to arrange for a local boda-boda (motorcycle taxi) to take you the remaining 8 kilometers along the dirt road to Ol Lentille. Expect to pay around 300-500 KES for the boda-boda ride, depending on negotiation.

Private Shuttle

You can also arrange for a private shuttle service from Nanyuki to Ol Lentille. Many lodges and travel agencies in Nanyuki offer these services. This is a more comfortable option and can be arranged in advance. Prices vary, but expect to pay around 5,000-10,000 KES for the round trip. The shuttle will take you directly to Ol Lentille without the need for additional transportation.
