Mau-Summit-Londiani-Koru-Kisumu: A Treat
If the object of your journey to Western Kenya aims for Kisumu city or outwith, C35 Londiani-Koru-Awasi route provides a great alternative away from the busy B1 Mau Summit-Kericho-Kisumu Road. At Londiani, just 9 km from Mau Summit interchange, taking a right turn, a splendid backroad meandering up and down as it navigates from the highlands to the lower-lying lake region also cuts back the journey by 10 km. Londiani stands at the verge of the two rift valleys – Kavirondo Rift Valley (a fault trough extending westwards to the shores of Lake Victoria) with the Gregory Rift Valley. And the 82 kms stretch of road passing Tinderet Mountain, Nandi Hills and the conical hills near Koru offers stupefying views of a healthful, primitive undulating landscape. Then, there is the beauty of old colonial towns marked by antiquated colonial houses which tell the stories of a bygone era as does the old colonial railway. There is also the scenic Bonjoge National Reserve.
Kenya is home to numerous historic sites that showcase the country’s rich cultural heritage, ancient civilizations, colonial history, and struggle for independence. These historic sites offer valuable insights into Kenya’s past and its diverse cultural heritage, making them essential destinations for visitors interested in her history.
