Where to stay

Eliye Springs and Kalokol at the shores of Lake Turkana, the County capital Lodwar and Lokichogio in the far northwest have decent to good accommodation facilities.

In more remote places like Kapedo, Lokichar, Kakuma, Katilu or Nariokotome you will have to rely on basic guest facilities of church missions, simple local lodgings or your own camping equipment. It is advisable to prebook since space is limited and in many places, food will need prior notice for preparation.
