Amboseli National Park has the country's most spectacular backdrop, Mt. Kilimanjaro. Mt. Kilimanjaro is the highest peak and is usually cloud covered hiding the mountain's massive size. The Kenyan side of the mountain is very steep where as the Tanzanian side is where the climbing happens. Amboseli is also elephant country. The small national park is only 390 sq km. the vegetation used to be much denser but the rising salinity, damage by the elephants and the irresponsible behaviour with the safari vehicles has caused terrible erosion. It is only time before the lack of food will make the animals move on.
Erosion on the land.
