Excerpt from the Event Program:

Competitive: 185.52 km
Liaison: 137.22 km
Day Total: 322.74 km

CS 10: KONGONI TO NGARE ENGARE – 35KM
A short stage to start with, but an extremely difficult one.Steep climbs over red soil tracks, and will be extremely slippery if it’s wet. It will keep the drivers on their toes.

CS 11: NAJILE TO OLTEPESI – 58KM – STAGE CANCELLED
The stage that would be a story and a game changer. The roughest most challenging stage of this year’s event, an iconic stage that the late Richard Burns retired, and at the very beginning of the Safari Rally.

CS12: KAMUKURO TO HUNTERS LOOK OUT – 93KM
This stage has many luggas which could have flowing water. The last few kilometres are extremely rough over big rocks and a climb into the flying finish. Short busy drive to the Tamarind Tree Hotel in Nairobi where the competitors overnight.
