About Eldoret International Airport
Eldoret International Airport serves Eldoret, in the western highlands of Kenya, and carries the IATA code EDL. The city is the county seat of Uasin Gishu County and lies about 265 km northwest of Nairobi in a straight line, so for many journeys Eldoret is reached by road from Nairobi. Visitors flying in use the airport as the gateway to the city and the surrounding highlands, where the air is cooler than in many other parts of the country. People stay in Eldoret when they need a base in the region, and some travel on to Iten, the nearby town known for its high-altitude running camps. Because the hotels near Eldoret International Airport sit out along the roads into the city rather than at the terminal, guests usually pick a base in Eldoret and cover the last stretch by road.
