Tsavo West, Kenya

Tsavo West National Park, one of Kenya’s largest and most diverse parks, offers a stunning blend of landscapes, from rocky outcrops and rolling savannahs to lush springs and lava flows. Known for the iconic Mzima Springs, where clear waters attract hippos and crocodiles, Tsavo West also provides a habitat for a remarkable variety of wildlife. Visitors can encounter elephants, lions, leopards, buffalos, and the elusive lesser kudu, along with a vast array of bird species.

Tsavo West’s Chyulu Hills and Shetani Lava Flows add to its dramatic scenery, creating a striking contrast against the open plains. The best time to visit Tsavo West is during the dry seasons from June to October and January to February, when animals gather around water sources, enhancing the chances of wildlife sightings. The park’s rugged beauty and unique geological features make it a fascinating destination for adventure and exploration.
