Discover YMCA Kabati: A Haven of Recreation in Naivasha

Getting There

• Walking

  If you are in the Naivasha town center, start at the Naivasha Bus Station. Head southeast on Moi South Lake Road. Continue walking for about 1.5 kilometers until you reach the junction with the Nakuru-Nairobi Highway (A104). Cross the highway carefully, and then turn left (north) onto the highway. Walk along the highway for about 1 kilometer until you see the sign for YMCA Kabati. The entrance is off the main road on your right. Follow the path leading to the YMCA compound.

• Bicycle

  From Naivasha town center, rent a bicycle and head southeast on Moi South Lake Road. Cycle for approximately 1.5 kilometers until you reach the Nakuru-Nairobi Highway (A104). Use the pedestrian crossing to safely cross the highway, then turn left onto the highway. Continue for about 1 kilometer, and look for the YMCA Kabati sign on your right. Enter the compound following the pathway.

• Tuk-Tuk

  Find a tuk-tuk (three-wheeler) near the bus station or around the town center. Ask the driver to take you to YMCA Kabati. They will likely know where it is, but you can direct them to head southeast on Moi South Lake Road, then left onto Nakuru-Nairobi Highway (A104). After about 1 kilometer, tell them to stop when they see the YMCA Kabati sign on the right. The drop-off point will be right at the entrance.

• Matatu (shared taxi)

  From Naivasha town center, locate the matatu stage usually found near the bus station. Board a matatu heading towards Nakuru and inform the conductor to drop you off at the YMCA Kabati stop. The journey will take about 10-15 minutes. Once you get off, follow the path leading to the YMCA entrance, which is just off the Nakuru-Nairobi Highway.
