Kakamega

About 50km north of Kisumu, besides being the provincial headquarters of Kenya's Western Province, Kakamega's only real claim to fame is its proximity to the equatorial Kakamega Forest.

Kakamega is a good place to stock up if you are heading for the forest. It also has a post office, banks and market. The town's population is about 74,000, most of whom are farmers and fishermen of the Luhya tribe.
