Kapsabet is a town in Kenya. It is the capital of Nandi County and is located 40 kilometres southwest of Eldoret on the way to Chavakali. The name Kapsabet comes from "Kap"- 'belong to/area of' and "sabit" or "sobet" – 'live' and has come to mean 'a place of life' though external influences and documentation refer it as Kapsabet. Kapsabet is situated 8 km east of Kaptaroi Forest.
