Tsavo National Park covers more than 53,870 square kilometers (20,800 square miles). It is Kenya's largest national park and is split into Tsavo East and Tsavo West by the busy Mombasa/Nairobi Road and the railroad. Tsavo West and East combined have 2,000 kilometers (1,250 miles) of dirt tracks, some of which serve as firebreaks and all of which are important in the continuing fight against poaching. Despite this network of tracks, wildlife is not easy to see because of large distances, thick scrub, and high grass. However, the beautiful landscapes and the sense of isolation put you in touch with a part of the real Africa.
