Sacho

Sacho is a small agricultural village on the eastern side of the Tugen Hills in Baringo County, lying at a moderate elevation in a fertile area of maize and dairy farming. It is a quiet, rural settlement with no tourism infrastructure, but its location in the hills makes it a possible stop for travellers exploring the Tugen Hills escarpment or the back roads between Kabarnet and the eastern Rift Valley floor.
