How to get there

By Road

The luxurious Mutara camp is located in Laikipia county near Nanyuki. From Nairobi, use the Thika super highway and smoothly make your way to Thika. On reaching Thika, proceed with a 54.9km trip to a place called Marwa which is about 13km to Nyeri town. From Nyeri town, drive 13.5km to Kiganjo via Nyeri – Nyahururu road then head to Naro Moru which is 26.5km from Kiganjo via Nyeri – Nanyuki road.

Using the same road, head to Nanyuki which is 21.8km ahead. From Nanyuki, we have two different routes both heading to Mutara Camp, the Ol Pejeta route and the British army Batuk route. The Ol Pejeta route is the route that passes through the Ol Pejeta conservancy and is about 49.1km to the Mutara Camp. On this route, you will be required to pay gate fees for both the visitors and the vehicle. This route has an amazing view of wild animals and is only a 1 hour 20 minutes drive to the Camp. When travelling to the camp a four-wheel drive is highly recommended because the road has a tarmac that ends within a few kilometres and a rough murram road kicks in the rest of the way to the camp.

By Air

Kamok airstrip is approximately 15 minutes drive to the camp. Alternative airstrip is the Nanyuki Civil Airstrip. Air Kenya, Safarilink and Governors’ all land on both airstrips.
