Serengeti Safari Map
"In
the Maasai language, Serengeti means "endless plain", a fitting
name for this 14, 763 sq. kilometer expanse of grasslands and forests. Nearly
as large as the state of Connecticut, Serengeti National Park is the largest
in Tanzania and one of the largest wildlife sanctuaries in the world. The
park lies in a high plateau between the Ngorongoro highlands and the Kenyan
border and extends nearly all the way to Lake Victoria in the west. The
landscape of the park, with its low vegetation and vast seas of open plain,
is ideal for game viewing." - Descriptive text from Thomson Safaris
(http://www.thomsonsafaris.com).
