What to Know About Magadi

Key Facts

Magadi is a town and administrative ward located in Kajiado West sub-county within Kajiado County, Kenya. Situated approximately 100 kilometers southwest of Nairobi in the southern part of the Great Rift Valley, Magadi occupies a strategic position near the Tanzanian border in a predominantly semi-arid landscape characterized by acacia woodlands and volcanic hills. The town serves as the administrative and commercial center for the surrounding Magadi Division and derives its name from Lake Magadi, the massive alkaline lake that dominates the local geography. With an estimated population of around 15,000 people, primarily from the Maasai community, Magadi covers an area of approximately 1,200 square kilometers of rugged terrain that ranges from 600 to 1,800 meters above sea level. The town is divided into several smaller locations and villages that fall under its administrative jurisdiction, including Olkeri, Shompole, and parts of the lake basin area. Magadi's economy revolves almost entirely around the extraction and processing of soda ash from Lake Magadi, operated by the Magadi Soda Company, which represents one of Kenya's largest mineral exports and provides employment for most local residents.
