Established near Maralal town, the administrative centre of Samburu District: Accessibility, is by direct road from Samburu National Reserve to Maralal town. The Samburu peopie, who inhabit this beautiful country are close relatives of the tall, proud nomadic Maasai of Southern Kenya. Their beautifully ornamented morans (warriors) march fearlessly across the plains in memorable sights. The sanctuary has big residential populations of impala, eland, buffalo, baboon, warthog, zebra and the attendant predators – lion, leopard and hyena.
A rough rocky track from Maralal leads to Lake Turkana via Loiyangalani.
