Public Bus
From the city center, head to the Kencom Bus Station. Look for buses heading towards Karen or Ngong. Buses labeled 'Karen' will take you close to your destination. Board the bus and pay the fare, which is usually around 50-100 KES. Stay on the bus until you reach the 'Karen' stop, which should take about 30-45 minutes depending on traffic.
Walking
Once you get off at the 'Karen' stop, you will need to walk to The Oloolua Nature Trail. Head southwest on Karen Road. Continue straight for about 1 kilometer. You will pass several local shops and homes. Keep an eye out for signs directing you to the Oloolua Nature Trail. The entrance is located on the right side of the road, just before you reach the Oloolua Forest area.
Boda Boda (Motorcycle Taxi)
For a quicker option, you can hire a boda boda from the 'Karen' stop. Negotiate the fare before starting; it should be around 100-200 KES. Tell the rider to take you to Oloolua Nature Trail. The ride will take about 10 minutes, and they will drop you off right at the entrance of the trail.
Use The Oloolua Nature Trail as your starting point for nearby food, family ideas, nightlife, and more local discoveries.
