Course Details
The course runs through the savanna and bush around Dol Dol in Laikipia, on a mix of dirt roads and tracks. The terrain is relatively flat to gently rolling but the altitude and heat in this area can be demanding. Expect dust, sun exposure, and a remote race experience.
Getting There
Dol Dol is in Laikipia County, approximately 200km north of Nairobi via Nanyuki. The drive takes around 3 to 4 hours. Nanyuki (about 50km away) is the nearest town with accommodation and services.
