With a total area of 21,812 km², Tsavo is the largest natural park in the country. It belongs to a system of adjacent parks that includes the Chyulu Hills National Park, the Ngai Ndethia Nature Reserve and the South Kitui Nature Reserve, for a total total area of over 23,000 km² (equal to the whole of Tuscany). The park was opened in April 1948 and in May of the same year it was divided, for administrative purposes, into Tsavo East National Park (Tsavo East National Park) and Tsavo West National Park (Tsavo West National Park). The two parks are divided by the road from Nairobi to Mombasa (the A109) and the railway, part of the Uganda Railway built by the British in the late 19th century. Both are administered by the Kenya Wildlife Service. The nearest town is the village of Voi, in Taita-Taveta County, Coast Province. The park takes its name from the Tsavo River, which flows through it.
To the south, it is contiguous to the Mkomazi National Park, in Tanzania, constituting a unique protected area for the protection of the migratory movements of elephants, oryxes and zebras during the rainy season: the union of the two parks constitutes one of the largest and most important protected ecosystems on the planet.
