Local know-how to help you travel smarter and make the most of every moment.
Car
If you are driving from the Lake Baringo area, head towards the main road leading towards Kapkelelwa. Follow the road signs to Kapkelelwa, keeping the lake on your left side. Once you reach Kapkelelwa, look for the coordinates 8XHX+QR, which you can input into your GPS. The Irong Conservancy is located at these coordinates. There is no specific entry fee for the conservancy, but it's advisable to check with local guides or the management for any potential costs related to guided tours or activities within the conservancy.
Public Transportation
To reach Irong Conservancy using public transport, start by taking a matatu (shared taxi) from Lake Baringo to Kapkelelwa. Matatus frequently run between these locations and should cost around 100-200 KES. Once you arrive in Kapkelelwa, you can ask locals for the direction to the coordinates 8XHX+QR, or hire a boda boda (motorcycle taxi) for a small fee, typically around 50-100 KES, to take you directly to the conservancy.
