Kapolet Fishing Camp: Into the Cheranganis

The settlement of Kapolet is found east of Saiwa Swamp National Park, north of Sibanga Shopping Centre and immediately south of Kapcherop Forest. It can be reached using either A1 Kitale-Kapenguria Road or C48 Kitale-Cherangani Road. Found along the Kapolet River, the time-honoured Kapolet Fishing Camp, with eye-catching montane panoramas of the magnificent Cherangani Hills, offers an inexpensive base for the avid fisherman, and the nature-lover, to spend a day in the health-giving countryside. Set off-the-beaten-track, Kapolet is famed for its trout fishing and is within reach of Rivers Muruny and Chepkaitik, which are also healthful waters where the Barbel Rainbow trout, Tiger and Nile Perch were a common-catch in the 1980s. Kapolet Fishing Camp is managed by the Kapolet Fishing Association. The Kapolet Fishing Camp is situated 32 kms east of Kitale.
